  1. Re:Will HUB bring anything new? by The-Bus · · Score: 2, Informative · on September PS3 Launch, Online Service
    "The concept of having HUB be a "media HUB" for Sony music, films, etc. is interesting, but I really wouldn't call that new."


    Well, there's a couple of problems. First off, Sony already has a music store. The fact that no one seems to mention it tells me that it's not very well known or well-used. Their Japanese online music service might be faring a bit better, I don't know. Both sites reek of "me too"-ism... if Sony is going to let the Media part of their company control the other divisions (as it currently does now, eventhough it's not the most profitable), then HUB might be another bust.
  2. Sony has their own music store by AKosygin · · Score: 1 · on iTMS Launches in Japan

    Sony has their own music store, that is why you do not see any music that is distributed or produced by Sony.

    The Sony online music has been around for a long time before even there was discussion about iTunes Japan.

  3. Alchemists and Lives by kai.chan · · Score: 1 · on Blending Mice and Men

    An anime series called Full Metal Alchemist (Alternate) deals with Alchemists trying to revive humans. Although the Chimeras presented in the anime seems far-fetched, I think it raises a lot of ethical issues that might pertain to the real scientific research into playing God.

    > from wilds the 'net?"

    Show business needs to look somewhere for original plot ideas. They most definitely have none in Hollywood nor with the studio Exec's in NY and FL. There is so very little decent, quality programming on TV. And in movies it's almost not worth owning a VCR/DVD player, or a TV for that matter.

    I have the fortune of having a 7 year old son. It's just him and me picking our own entertaimment. For that reason I tend to watch a number of cartoons on Nick and the Cartoon Network. He loves "Spounge Bob" & "Kids Next Door." I can watch them with him but I don't get the same enjoyment from them as he does. However, there is a block on the Cartoon Network now called "Migusi" which airs from 1700 to 1900. We watch "Totally Spies", "Code Lyoko", "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and "Teen Titans". Code Lyoko is really fun and out there. The Turtles have always been a hoot and the Teen Titans are just plane cool. Not to mention their theme song is by Puffy AmiYumi.

    As for moview, we have the majority of the Godzilla collection and the first three Tremmors movies (still need the 4th one). Got a number of Pokemon and assorted cartoons (not to mention the virtually manditory Disney movies). My personal movie collection, i.e. the ones daddy gets to watch, are about half F&SF and half Kurosawa/Mifune/Shimura films and their like (CT/HD & The Last Samuri being the most recently made). We'll just skip over the videos in the box on the top shelf of my bedroom closet for now. ;-)

    What was I talking about?!? Oh, yeah! That the "entertainment industry" is full of brainless idiots who wouldn't know a good story or show if it hit them in the head.

  5. I.O.D by Lycestra · · Score: 1 · on Nintendo's Iwata - Innovate or Die
    Innovate Or Die? What kind of marketing name is that?

    Read Or Die sounds much cooler for the market. Just ask The Paper.
