I've been using Beam-It for almost a week now. I'm addicted. I had started to record my CDs as MP3 files, but quickly ran out of disk space. So I was still shuttling around atoms, when I knew that I could be just shuffling bits. Beam-It allows me to do that. From my PC in my office or den, I have access to my entire CD collection which is physically located in the living room. And it's free. I think it's a very cool application and very newsworthy. Now, can someone do that with my DVDs? --Mike Oeth
Maybe I'm just more sensitive to it, but it seems like U.F. makes more fun of the clueless marketing guy than they do of "users." As a clueless marketing guy, I love it. Most of the time I know the pain I'm putting the engineers through and sometimes do it because they're such easy targets. I can completely identify with the strip.
