So is this the first step toward having three pre-cognative kids floating in a milk bath commanding lathes to carve names into wooden balls so Tom Cruise can go make arrests before crimes are committed?
Three weeks ago a couple in a van pulled into my neighborhood and took a picture of my house. My girlfriend, who was on the porch, gave them a wtf hand gesture, to which they just smiled, waved and drove away.
I already have a DVD player to watch movies with, and I will get an HD-DVD or Blu-Ray player if I want someday (though I would prefer a direct download service instead). I already have a computer to handle my internet-related interests. I already have a toaster, a fridge and a vaccuum cleaner.
Just give me a game machine that plays games and doesn't rival my car in sticker price.
So how long before we all have barcodes tattooed to our foreheads and RFID chips implanted in our hands by the RIAA so they can know every musical anything we come into contact with the second said contact happens, and bill/sue us for it appropriately?
Disc-based media needs to be retired. These companies should all have pursued the creation of direct download services where they compete to acquire the rights from movie studios to offer their films to consumers for download to universal players with built-in hard drives.
Let me guess what's holding that up... copy protection?

Wonder if this is related?

There are still a ton of FFXI gil auctions up. The WoW gold auctions seem to be gone, though - all that's left are 'guides' on how to make gold.

It probably is difficult to fill a toilet to 100% capacity with fecal matter, so he's probably right.
