In the past I know artists have had it out for MP3.com in regards to their "payback for playback" -- wonder if this new ad-free subscription service will help?"

  Give me one good reason why should I care?
  Those artists who don't care about money will still create and those who do care about money won't. Good riddance to the latter ones.

  How would you feel if that would be applied to programs as well? A corporation would not take your code unless you'd do it for free and wouldn't ask to keep any rights for it.

  Wish I had pizza.
  There's a great pizza place 200 meters down the street but I'm afraid I'm too drunk to go there. They'll see I've been drinking.
  So, instead, I'll keep on watching WWF Smackdown.

Sad News... by Anonymous Coward · 2001-09-01 07:18 · Score: -1, Offtopic

I just heard some sad news on TV, apparently Slashdot website creator, Rob "CmdrTaco" Malda, was rushed to the hospital this afternoon after having his penis sliced off. Authorities say the accident involved Rob's penis, his computer, and an illegal computer device imported from China that was designed to stimulate the penis during cyber-sex. The authorities aren't releasing many details yet as to how it happened, but they suspect that the device malfunctioned which caused his penis to be sliced off. However, there is speculation among the Slashdot community that the Open Source Operating System "Linux" is to blame, for its faulty structure and lack of professional development. There is no word of whether there was any foul-play involved from hackers amongst the Linux community.
