    ... and the total subversion of the free market principles which lie at its core.

  2. Re:SACD = AMAZING!!! or SACD == AMAZING!!! by (H)elix1 · · Score: 0, Troll

    I've never heard a SACD player, so no comments on how great or lousy the sound might be, but this pounds home what some marketing folks really want....

    SACD = AMAZING, assigning something

    rather than...

    SACD == AMAZING, something is equivalent.

    I growl every time I see the "drive=love" commercials, and my wife tells me to get over it. Guess drive.equals(love) just does not have the same warm fuzzy feeling, and technically if you make the assignment, I guess equality would be true.

    I know you care, however... right? Hello? (slinking away from my soap box)
