...and am intruiged as to what "the process will not depend on network monitoring or interception of customer traffic by Virgin Media" actually means? Does this mean if Universal suspect me of filesharing, they can pass my IP to Virgin and have me temporarily disconnected?
On the plus side, the subscription service... as long as it is appropriately priced... is exactly what I have been looking for in terms of digital music. Provided it truely is DRM-free, and hopefully lossless quality:)
I have always been a Nintendo fan, mainly due to the fact that I love the Zelda series and the Mario games (be it the platformers or the sports games etc.)
For my money the Wii is cheap, accessible, and most importanly it looks FUN. In the end, even if the PS3 and XBox both outsell the Wii I wouldn't be the slightest bit fussed. As Nintendo will be making a profit on every console they sell, they are (almost definately) guaranteeing themselves a place in the next-next-generation of consoles, which will mean more Zelda and Mario games in the years to come (and dear I say it an even more innovative console?).
The only thing I am concered about is the third-party developers attitude toward the console, and from what I've read it's positive. So as long as we see some decent games, interesting use of the controller, and more of Nintendo in the future I'll be more than happy.
