If a law (or constitutional amendment) was passed that made it so that the NBA couldn't give the same benefits to black players as white players, and hence making it harder for them to recruit black players, you can bet your ass that they would fight that law/amendment as hard as they possibly could.
If you rip your DVD to MPEG-4/H.264/AVC, said movie file can be imported to iTunes and from there on to the iPhone/iPod Touch without any problem whatsoever. So I'm not sure what point you are trying to make about DVD rips.
And iTunes existed long before the iTunes store, and I have no problems ignoring the store and just use it as a means to put mp3s on my iPhone.
Actually, it doesn't even matter what temperament you are using. E# != F even if E# and F have the exact same frequency. It all depends on what key you are playing in. In a particular key, you have one note of each 'letter'. So in the key of C# major, you use the notes C#, D#, E#, F#, G#, A#, and B#, not C#, D#, F, F#, G#, A# C. This is so that the key signature can be written at the beginning of the piece rather than writing accidentals in front of every instance of F depending on whether it is supposed to be the 3rd or 4th note of the scale.
