Apple confirmed that its vice president of iTunes Eddie Cue, and vice president of iPod product marketing Greg Joswiak will be flying down under for a press conference on Tuesday morning. Cue has been prominent in a number of launches around the globe of the online music store, which is now available in around 20 countries worldwide. Australians have been waiting for the launch for more than a year now. It is believed Sony's Australian division wanted to block the launch."

More free ads for Apple, because we are Open... by TheNetAvenger · 2005-10-21 23:15 · Score: -1, Flamebait

More free ads for Apple, because we are an Open Source News and support community. And we all know there is nothing more Open than Apple and their proprietary codecs, hardware, and software that was once open source until they took it and gave back only the 'legal' requirement.

GO APPLE! - I'm about to wet myself waiting for the next Apple Ad to get posted here...

(When did this go from the open source community to supporting a company that makes Microsoft look open in comparison?)

Hypocrites....
