Griffin RadioSHARK Exceeds Expectations
reifman writes "Picked up a Griffin RadioSHARK (think TiVo for radio) at the Apple store this evening: It exceeds all expectations. The user experience is simple. The iPod synchronization is seamless. The RadioSHARK is a counter-attack on the recording industry and its draconian file sharing lawsuits. I'm glad to see Griffin had the balls to release this product. ."
People complain about everything. Get a job in retail sometime and you will realize just how bitchy and blameful people are in regards to their own personal responsibility. That does not mean that you should change things just becuase a very minute fraction of a percentage of people want to whine about something.
Who are you to tell me how hot McDonald's coffee should be? The fact of the matter is that McDonalds knew that people liked their coffee that hot and I know I like it that hot too. The few people who complained about it were far outnumbered by the people who bought and ejoyed the McDonalds coffee.
I'm for bussiness providing safe products, but in the case of coffee.. ITS A FUCKING CUP OF COFFEE! How stupid do you have to be not to treat that cup like pure gold when its in your hands? McDonalds sold the coffee with the idea that you were going to exercise some common sense with it. McDonalds did not pour the coffee in her lap, the lady did.
Should a pretzel company be responsible for people who are too stupid to properly chew their pretzels and choke?
Should Coca-Cola be responsible becuase someone tried to inhale the contents of a can of coke instead of properly drinking it?
Should Ford be responsible because you recklessly drove your car into a wall (Not because of a car malfunction, which would be a legitimate claim)?
It might be just me, but this almost seems like a blatant add. What is the news content in this? We all ready had the press release, why do we need another kool-aid dose for this limited use toy?
--WooooHoooo--
I'm glad we had someone who "worked in retail" chiming in here. I mean, these people with law backgrounds obviously don't know what the standard is for tort liability, do they?
