You are thinking exactly like RIM. There is FAR more to a modern pocket computer then a good physical keyboard and secure email. Also, RIM's 'evil' is in their stupidity and hubris. We bash them for being retards. We bash them for saying things like this " you will never see a Blackberry with a camera".
But desktops ARE standing still. The next 'tick' out of intel will be an incremental upgrade at best or more cores but nothing that will change how Suzy cubicle drone does her work.
Its not the cost, its the idea that an artists and their agents attempt ( and succeed) in limiting technology for nothing else then profit. Art is insignificant compared to the technological communication infrastructure we are building. They need to get the fuck out of the way before we as a society decide to really change the nature of copyright.
Your expectations are not reasonable. You assert that you should be able to totally control whether i hear your song or not, AFTER you release it to the public consciousness? And thats reasonable to you? fuck you.
Normal humans cant navigate a folder hierarchy. After years and years of doing drag and drop i finally gave in and databased my music and now i get why it works for the average idiot.
We dont want them to. We want them to suffer from their hubris and stupidity. Blackberry SUCKS. In the face of competition they thumbed their nose at their customer, instead of rising to meet the challenge. RIM deserves to die because they thought they could ride secure email until the end of the mobile revolution.
Because in a casual conversation like a forum post, grammar Nazis add nothing to the actual conversation. It is usually a small mind that cant find anything else to say, so they hunt for grammar errors.
The problem with your statement is that you think the law reflects a just state of affairs. Law is BOUGHT and PAID for every single day, with no regard to 'is this morally right". Saying 'the law is the law' shows your ignorance on how law is forged.
The problem is Lady Gaga, or any cultural work is not important enough to stifle technological progress. The model is no longer viable, so YES you can hand wave all that profit away. Make money from PERFORMING, not trying to make a profit from every mind your work touches. I HATE the idea that people feel IP allows them ultimate control over work they release into the public consciousness.

I feel sorry for you that you only experience guilty fun as an adult.
My wife is an executive level recruiter. Shes looked up a GPA once in 10 years.

You can drive across Hoover Dam. I did it less then 3 months ago.
Federal law does not always trump state law. The Federal government might want you to think that, but its simply not true.

Society shouldnt value commercial art so much that we limit technological progress to protect vested interests.

Native americans were militarily conquered. Nothing was stolen.

The word Wii was assuaged by the word Nintendo right next to it.
Tablets and phones WILL supplant Desktop PCs via docking. Its going to happen.
ios 6 didnt 'ship today' because it was announced at a DEVELOPERS conference. If you are a developer, you can try out iOS 6 right now.
He meant the usable battery life will be less on x86.
Task manager is started from the command line.......
ON the whole, there is no way you can say the Xbox 360 design was good. They brute forced it. It took THREE redesigns to get it right.
No PHYSICAL data ports. You can still attach keyboards and thumbdrives to an ipad, they just have to connect wirelessly.
iPads can be backed up and mirrored, you are an idiot.
P.S. Only the win 8 pro (x86) will have Active directory and group policies.

We are not at war with another nation-state, thus we are not at war.
Have you ever heard of 'The Right Stuff'?
Pilot, not occupant
Spacecraft, not capsule
Window and Escape Hatch with explosive bolts, not 'spam in a can'

Private gropers would mean that the money would come from ticket sales, not taxes.
