Star Wars Phantom Menace 1.1 Editor Speaks

It's quite interesting and explains why he hated Jar Jar Binks so much
Does that really need explaining?
Ooh, a sarcasm detector. Oh, that's a real useful invention.
Yeah, I mean it's not as if there are hundreds of internet radio stations streaming MP3s. And it's not as if the BBC have been experimenting with streaming OGG.
I'm sorry, I just don't see how what I said was flame bait. Somebody asked why they were using Real Audio instead of MP3, and my answer was the streaming capabilities of Real. If it sounded like I was saying Real was better than MP3 or OGG, then I apologize for not being clearer in what I was saying.
Let me clarify my point: Real is a dedicated server/streaming solution. It's made by a company that is dedicated to providing that support. Ogg or MP3 is probably superior, but when you make a business decision, the company you're getting it from is a big consideration.
"Derp de derp."
It is interesting this is posted about 2 weeks before the next Star Wars movie. I guess it is to remind us about it. Most people - scf-fi fans and otherwise - are looking forward to the Spiderman movie (recent trailer had him swooping just over a bunch of yellow cabs in NY; very good.) Besides Spiderman, most people interested in ci-Fi are waiting for the second Lord of The Rings movie. I grew up with Star Wars (was 12 when the first movie came out.) but I don't see the interest anymore. I think more people are waiting for the next X-Men movie than a SW movie in which we know that Anakin gets involved with Queen whats-her-name and starts becoming Darth Vader. Lucus probably went with his alledged last 3 movies of the series set 100-200 years after ROTJ. Right now, he has no room to move.
