GNAA reveals the truth - Nigger Operatives Responsible
MudanJiang, People's Republic of China: 13 August 2004
The GNAA has today broken the media lockout on North Korea's nuclear explosion. With governmental and press agencies everywhere desperately lying to the sheep-like public, the GNAA has had to step forward.
"We did it", the words of Gay Nigger Association President timecop. Nigger agent Relex is believed have penetrated deep into DPRK territory and conducted sabotage missions culminating in the recent Nuke blast. His weeklong absence from #GNAA (on irc.gnaa.us) was cause for suspicions that dangerous operations were afoot. Intelligence sources indicate that Relex did not have enough time to escape the lethal zone of the warhead, and was well within its kill radius at the time of detonation.
A pink ROFLcopter was seen speeding across the DPRK-Chinese border late Saturday night. Murmurs of Relex's successful extraction were confirmed finally on Sunday, 12 August by his personal appearance in #GNAA. He refused to comment on any operations at the time, claiming to have been "in Mexico".
His miraculous survival has led many to hypothesize about his invincibility. Some suggest the Holy Gay Nigger Seed may have "life-sustaining" properties, suggestions that the white medical establishment has dismissed. There is an ongoing debate surrounding this idea, with both sides throwing arguments back and forth. Supporters point to GNAA Terrorist Tar_Baby's unverified survival of the OSTG disaster, that killed over 300 Indians. The opposing camp points to the recent capture and possible death of GNAA broadcast propagandist l0de after he made threats to "crash a cruise ship into the Whitehouse". As of this release, the issue is not resolved, and hard evidence is lacking.
The GNAA's North Korea operations are believed to stem from the ongoing Korean/Black hatred.

Musicmatch was good... when it was free... They added CD burning and crap to it... and it became totally ruined... you just can't beat Winamp these days... and iTunes is bloated trash as well... if you don't want to use the music store and/or iPod functionality... its a little excessive and takes up a ton of memory...
That's about as funny as this joke.
Knock knock.
Who's there?
goatse!
This certainly wasn't any lamer than your 'joke'.

Not really. Please stop trolling.
I can never really understand why the Slashdot crowd goes all out for Apple, when some of their policies are just as shitty.
Apple is trying to tie you down to their hardware, and their music service while good, is not the only one nor is it the best.
Try Microsoft's online music service. It's much better than Apple's. Apple had a good ride because they were the first - I'll hand that to them. Nothing more. When better services come (and yes, Microsoft's service seems *much* better - go have a look) along, Apple will fall back and not care about it's existing users. Think it hasn't happened before?
All Apple does is come up with new technologies, use them while they're new and dump them once they're done. Sometimes I think that if Steve Jobs invited some of the Mac-heads to hell, everyone will follow him.
Barring some very unYahoo-like innovation
Excuse me? Yahoo in and of itself was an innovation. When nobody cared about webhosting, they acquired Geocities. And they broke into the IM market long before even Microsoft cared to notice.
