You think Disney won't bundle ESPN and make you pay for both? That was always the problem with their cable deals and here they are doing it on their own.
Eventually the distributors will catch on to the idea that consumers don't like paying so many separate bills for content every month, so they will offer bundles of the most popular providers for a set price for month. Sure, these bundles will often include content that you're not interested in, but you won't have a choice.
It's not about how much they spent - it was really profitable at the time. But this was just before the Internet was becoming a thing. If they had the foresight to keep their old stuff alive just a little bit longer, it would have been useful all over again.
If speed bumps are really tall - they may exceed the distance the suspension is designed to smooth out. They are not talking about the ridges carved into roads like on Interstate shoulders.
More to the point, why is the company disclosing its supply chain to Amazon, and how would using that information be Amazon's fault?
Drop shipping, if they're dumb enough to have it shipped straight from China to the warehouse - Amazon gets most of the info they need to reach out to the supplier.
Dollar stores don't sell alkalines for a dollar. They sell carbon-zinc "heavy duty" batteries. And since heavy duty means something totally different from what people thinks it means in this context, they still get away with selling loads of them.
It's the online equivalent of rearranging the store shelves. The longer you spend searching, the more likely you are to buy one of the bad matches in addition to the one thing you were looking for. This doesn't work with highly technical searches at all, but it gets them all sorts of extra sales otherwise. On top of that, they don't police 3rd-party vendors who list in completely wrong categories.
Sears has been a catalog-order company for over a century. Logistics is something they had figured out. They blew it all on brick and mortar and the the Internet came in and ate their lunch.
Have you searched Wal-Mart's web site lately? They offer a third-party seller platform too. It's garbage, and it really just makes good search results hard to find - not quite as bad as NewEgg's program, but close.
Make this out like this is some big bad monopolistic move, but every major retail company sells private-label goods. Whether it's Wal-Mart with its Ozark Trail or Mainstays, Aldi / Trader Joes and almost every product, or Target and Market Pantry, Archer Farms, etc.
This is not nearly news. AmazonBasics is very old news.
I did see Happy Belly products on an asian Amazon site. I'm not sure if they have many US products under that brand yet.
I would still believe it - female birth control pills weren't widely available to unmarried women until the 70's (at least according to history sources, I wasn't around), making a condom more important as a contraceptive prior to then.
The price difference isn't ridiculous because it's still a relatively small number. You're right - it'll be on anything and everything. H.264 used to be crazy impossible to decode way back when. I remember Microsoft distributing some form of MPEG-4 (may have been AVC1) video clip with surfing in 1080p. It played so choppy I couldn't even really view it except as practically a slideshow. I wish I could remember more, but I remember how I felt when my computer couldn't play it.
The whole point of this is not permanently storing this on a server somewhere.
With FTP, the server of the recipient can also double as the LAN file server if you're always the recipient and never the sender. The same method as email doesn't make sense when you realize multiple people may be accessing the file on the receiving side.

When I switched cord providers, I chose Playstation VUE
FTFY.
This is Cable 3.0

A 2-pack is believable, but I was thinking 4-pack in my mind.

For that matter, the device is already decoding compressed music. It isn't receiving pure waveform data as it is.
The only difference is storage and playlist management over what it already does for music.
In the Word example, the person you're selling it to would have to have a licensed copy of Word
Or the free Word viewer. Or you create a PDF file from Word.
Idiocracy explains it best. It's a negative selection bias against people who are proactive and think.

Or they only need at most one subscriber per version. The rest can have it redistributed.
Styrofoam.
Why? You only took the tailpipes off the delivery trucks, not the long haul trucks.
They do lots of last-mile delivery, you know.

That sounds so credible.
That one is believed to have originally actually been "mute" but morphed over the years..

I'm not sure if that was a question or statement?
