Yes Western countries dont need to have vast machinery to control the media and citizens because the media organisations are quite happy to do it themselves. Yes "the key checks of a free press and the freedom to voice one's opinion are sacrosanct." but it makes no difference because dissenting voices are drowned out by the establishment. For example in the UK the coverage of Palestine and Israel is unfairly biased towards Israel. http://www.gla.ac.uk/centres/mediagroup/bnfi_reviews.htm Its not just on this topic the same pattern can be seen again and again eg Iraq.
"The game simply got harder and harder, and demanded more pure skill and downright innovation from you, until you saw your last man get destroyed, probably in a grossly unfair fashion, and then the inevitable "GAME OVER" appeared"
Yeah AMAZING wasnt it... I am off to spend 5 hours playing robotron bye...
If you look after them you shouldnt have too many problems, its more or less the same with vinyl however
I personally have issues with CDs now and again. If you REALLY have had no jumping I am sure you
have looked after them VERY carefully or been lucky.
I think some people who didn't grow up with or aren't interested in vinyl may find it hard to understand what it is vinyl lovers see in it. There are a number of reasons:
If you buy a CD it feels like you have been short changed because of the small size of the art work and a file doesnt even get on the scale. They don't even smell the same !
Good vinyl is not only warmer it has a clarity and fullness of sound which is clearly missing on CDs. I can hear the difference easily on my mediocre system. I think most people can hear it if they are honest. It may not matter to the majority of people but if you are a big music fan then it often DOES.
Yes vinyl wears but its really not an issue if you treat right. The same is equally true of CDs. The amount of jumping CDs I have heard is probably more than worn records.
Yes many DJs may be trying out digital solutions to the nightmare of carrying a load of wax. I can understand that.
Portable music is great but where I really enjoy music is sat in front of my speakers with a few beers and good friends spinning some killer records.
Try it you might like it
How can anyone SERIOUSLY like the voice over version. Surely this should be 'Funny'.
Personally I voice over insulting. If you cant work out whats going on from the movie
alone then I think this movie is NOT for you.

I will have to agree with you about CDs and cars not mixing well...
