HP Working With Apple To Add WMA Support To iPod
iPod Afficianado writes to a short piece at Connected Home magazine in which Paul Thurrott "is quoted as saying that HP's blockbuster deal with Apple will have one
exciting side effect. The company will be working with Apple to add support for
Microsoft's superior Windows Media Audio (WMA) format to the iPod by mid-year."
hahahahahahahhahahaha

of Star Trek TNG in the episode where an admiral who has been taken over by an alien says to riker
"It is a superior form of life".
I prefer the "u" in honour as it seems to be missing these days.
'nuff said.

FLAC is a format like any other; choosing a lossless codec does not make you above the codec wars any more than a person using MP3.
idiot.
Here's a quarter, buy a new caps lock key with it.
How about making copyright reform a central issue in the upcoming election?
Very likely most politicians don't know if the DMCA is fit to eat, feel Disney and the RIAA are important campaign contributors whose requests should be given priority, and music downloaders are simple thieves who deserve every bit of punishment they get.
You can change that. But it's going to take some work. But there are enough people sharing music in America - more people than voted for George Bush - that if you get off your collective asses and get active politically, you can get laws passed to get the RIAA off your back.
In Change the Law, I explain that copyright is not a Constitutional right, like free speech. Instead copyright is allowed (but not required) to serve a useful purpose, a purpose which I feel has long since outlived its usefulness.
I suggest steps you can take to bring about copyright reform, ranging from speaking out to practicing civil disobedience.
One thing I'd like you all to do today is to write your elected representatives to ask their opinion of the current state of copyright law given its widespread abuse by organizations like the RIAA and MPAA, and to urge them to work towards copyright reform. Let them know your vote will depend on a positive response.
When you're done writing that letter, write to the other candidates for each office in the upcoming elections, to ask them the same thing.
Sixty million american peer-to-peer file traders have the potential to raise a lot of Hell with the politicians. I want every candidate to be peppered with questions about copyright reform at every campaign stop and in every press interview. I want the repeal of the DMCA to be discussed in the Presidential debates.
People marched in protest when Dmitry Sklyarov was arrested. Dmitry Sklarov is free now - but the law under which he was jailed is still on the books.
If you agree with me that something needs to be done about copyright, I need your help.
Thank you for your attention.

There is a streaming WMA my school uses for distance education lessons. Sometimes I can not access those pages, as their server is crappy. Other times when there are many people using the server, I get 30 seconds of play then it buffers again. And they only leave a lesson up as long as it is going to be on the next test, then they take down the lesson. Is there ANY way to record a WMA to a hard drive? Please help!!!
What is wrong with MPEG's???? Those are easy to use, save, and play.

Yeah I saw Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back too.
Ok Mr. AC, how'd you find my band's website if I didn't link to it? Hrm?
Meh, I know no one is going to reply.

Anything that even sounds like MicroSoft scares or confuses me. As a new user to linux I tried to install Debian but when it asked about setting up my MSN I balked and installed Yellowdog instead. Now I need to make a bumper sticker that says "cd ~ or bust"
Yes, next question?

Rocket fucking science there. And your band does suck.
Ok. Ok. I know it's a sin to reply to a sig, but I've not seen one this cool. I happen to be drinking a Shiner right now. Just like I did yesterday and the day before. Or anytime I go to a bar or resturant. I love the stuff. I even live with a blond labrador named Shiner. Sorry, but I had to say it. I love that damn beer.

I have no problem with one-button mouse, but I can think of many reasons Apple ought to offer both types. The point wasn't to argue with that, but to point out that there was a day long ago on Slashdot when every Apple post ended with a flame-war inducing comment about the one-button mouse. The gratuitous "superior" thing seemed along that lines. I don't know what the value of having a discussion forum is if the posts are geared toward sparking a flame-war. It definitely sends the signal-noise ratio off the wrong direction and fast.
