  1. Whats worse than bundling... on EU Launches Yet Another Antitrust Probe Into Microsoft · · Score: -1

  2. Re:Watch your bassbins on Vinyl Gets Its Groove Back · · Score: -1

    CDs have restricted frequencies

  3. Watch your bassbins on Vinyl Gets Its Groove Back · · Score: -1

    One of the reasons vinyl is preferred among many of my DJ friends is the bass gets a lot lower than CDs. Of course record labels could take advantage of the FLAC features by allowing a wider range of frequencies and skipping the CD phaze, but it's not happening anytime soon, and the veteran DJs will stick to vinyl, and a bunch of slashdotters who need to make a faux-clever joke about a medium they never use being inferior, will do what they do. Such is the ways of human error, everyone a little too lazy to do research, take advantage of current technology and offer it to sale to a group of consumers that would have to care enough about audio quality.

  9. When you shatter a monopoly... on Is Apple Killing Linux on the Desktop? · · Score: -1

    ...people flock in different directions. while many choose mac, many others will choose linux. but the fact that this monopoly is falling means more apps on other OS's. whose to say abode wont start using mono, or even start their own linux distro as m$'s market share declines?

    lol, you bought AIDS-ridden movies

  11. Invest in Open_Formats on The Afterlife Is Expensive for Digital Movies · · Score: -1

    no wonder files become incompatible/ the motion picture industry should invest in creating an open standard rather than spending much more on keeping propriety formats compatible

  12. constitutional application in US? on Egypt to Copyright Pyramids and Sphynx · · Score: -1

    not to i believe international countries will actually follow this, but it does make you wonder whether or not such a length of time would be constitutional, since IP has to lapse into PD at some point. however why would the current system which typically lasts well over 100 years be any more constitutional since most people never live to be that age, hence for the typical person, IP created in their lifetime won't lapse into PD.

  13. Re:god on Apple Lawyering Up On "Fake Steve Jobs" · · Score: -1, Troll

    its shameful how many ppl ignore apple's track record with drm/ hardware+software lockin/ and other legal issues and continue to bash m$ for being evil

  14. OMG CP on Encryption Passphrase Protected by the 5th Amendment · · Score: 0

    apparently at the airport his laptop was gone through by security/police and the found CPs but when the laptop was powered down the encryption kicked in...? i think its sad someone with CPs is getting away with this, but there was no right to go through his laptop in the first place (at the airport). he should be let off the charges for illegal search.

  20. Obvious announcement is obvious on Microsoft Fueling HD Wars For Own Benefit? · · Score: 0

    who following the format war couldnt figure this out? nay, who aware of m$ tactics couldnt figure this out? people wonder where all the 'm$ hate' comes in, but talk about a naive group. this is the reason that when talk of m$ arises there are so many snide remarks, its the only proper tone to take with such a fascist company.

  22. Re:nitpick on MP3 Format Still Gathering Momentum · · Score: 0

    hopefully with the rise in hard drive space, interest for higher quality audio will become a fad. flac is dominating this area right now, so its good to see an open format getting a start head here.
