That's right, the music and movie and entertainment industry is a great deal larger than the famous and sometimes rich.
There is a great deal more money being spent on such things as trade shows, carpenters, painters, graphics created and applied to real objects....studio musicians, etc...then there is in what you can classify as the famous and sometimes rich.
What CGI is better at and will always be better at is creating environments and characters that are not real, like the cave troll in LOTR.... And that is constrained to video/film production only.
Real actors and unsung heros can do what they do faster, better, and far more unique than any character generation can hope to achieve, for it is a combining of mind, creativity and real human interaction where alot of what you see is created from. Just compare something like "Final Fantasy: The Spirit Within" with how you know it could have been done with a combination of real actors and CGI, rather than totally CGI.
This doesn't dismiss the artist who might produce such amazing work as has been done in some of the 3D films.... but these works are few and recognized for their artistic valuse more than information or entertainment value.
I know these things because I've worked in set *theaterical and movie) and trade show work....there is alot more money and far more steady work t o be found in the trade show and corporate theater industry....... When real people are interacting with real people and use well known actors and such from the entertainment industry.....
So as many may be trying to rationalize invasion of privacy by thinking only of terrorism excuses, perhaps there is the other side of the coin as to what the feds may be looking for......like those assessing information in order to see the truth:
Take a good look at the different meters! Then look at this: What the World Wants
We have the technology and we have the funds to make good things happen.
So why is it not happening? You want to fight about it?
Assuming you don't want to fight about it, that fighting is not the goal or main desire of people, then there must be something else, something bigger that is the problem. You know, considering annual world military spending is $780 billion dollars (US) and to solve the major world humanitarian problems only needs 1/3 of that....
The problem has to be more than something under a trillion dollars.
"In the summer of 1997, across Thailand, property prices plummeted. This sparked a panic that swept through Asia. As banks went bust from Japan to Indonesia, people took to the streets - events so improbable they had never been included in anyone's models."
"Sources all over Asia tell Uscher that Asians know about local corruption but believe America is taking advantage of the situation to grab Asian markets and Asian wealth."
"The austerity measures were a condition of the International Monetary Fund's $43 billion aid package to bail out the southeast Asian nation. "
World Bank wanted to help Indonesia out but charge interest (usery) entrapment???? Funny how China is the only country who did not participate in this stock game and are better off then the rest of us for not doing so.....
Where the US bailout was only (pbs article):
"We expect that they're going to explain to the members of this Committee why the Federal Reserve has organized the $3.5 billion bail-out for billionaires, why Americans should be worried about the gambling practices of the Wall Street elite"
And there is Something Else I have run across for that timeline as well (making the "trillion dollar bet" just icing on this cake?):
(note: overall I find information from this resource to be integratingly correct enough to be both useful and insightful, though with a touch of blind bias towards capitalism, though it does try not to be blindly biased, it is to subjective to capitalism to completely avoid it.)
"During the 1993-1999 bubble era of false economic progress, many CEOs, executives, employers, employees, even customers adopted the scams of clintonian-era politicians, lawyers, journalists, academics to become increasingly dishonest, corrupt, even criminal. The bubble-building, stock-market fraud began when Chairman Alan Greenspan clintonized the Federal Reserve. He signaled that politicization by blatantly breaking a time-honored apolitical precedent when he sat as a special guest in the president's box during Clinton s first State-of-the-Union address. Greenspan, the former acolyte of capitalism-champion Ayn Rand, then married a socialist/clintonian journalist. His drive to create a Clinton-boosting, economic boom -- a high-tech bubble economy -- escalated from that point. He with Robert Rubin and Bill Clinton artificially increased the value of the dollar, relentlessly increased the M-3 money supply, recklessly created sloshing liquidity, and pied pipered consumers and corporations into bankrupting debt. He engineered those cancerous long-term policies to continually fuel the equity markets for baleful political ends and unearned glory.
The bubble burst in early 2000 causing losses of four-trillion dollars. After several sharp bear-market rallies, those equity losses launched a long-term economic decline -- the feared L-shaped recession or worse."
"In January 2000, Gen. Mike Hayden, the director of the NSA, received a call from the agency's watch officer alerting him that all of its computers had crashed."
In that same article (in fact in the previous paragraph):
"A phone call intercepted by the NSA is often the first warning that a terrorist such as Osama bin Laden is planning an attack against Americans. To find that threatening phone call, email or radio transmission among the billions made daily, the NSA relies on rooms of supercomputers."
The date of this CBS article is Aug 29, 2001.
Do you really think maybe Y2K brought the systems all down? For what is supposed to be the top spy agency in the US? (they don't say what caused the three and a half day crash.)
Or do you perhaps see a simpler Truth to the matter, such as:
Stock market gamblers and Gov. screwed up the world economy so bad and especially for muslims that the NSA had damn good reason to KNOW what was going to happen and that they needed an excuse for their total inability to deal with it.
How about now? Do you want to fight now? And if you were an Afghan Muslim, instead of a US citizen?
Targets....White House for it's political control over Pentagon military backed control over World Trade Center....world economy.
We taught them how to do it, How to fight smart, how to learn what they need to know and where they can get supplies (anthrax, planes, etc..) from us to use against us....... then we lite a bon fire under their ass to motivate them into action while we turned our backs to intelligence....played ignorant......so they could more easily do it.
And Ted Turner (CNN) said something about the attack being an act of desparation. Which he later apologized for.....because of why?
Actually MS will be promoting and supporting the CLI (Common Language Infrastructure) Technology within.net along with probably having available anti-gpl license visualstudio.net development tools information and of course Palladium and DRM information They will be very open and supportive about CLI and the ECMA-335 document.
Get MS to clean up their act of bandwidth hogging.
I know there are settings that can be set but most people don't.
I access a web page, it down loads it to my system. I want to printthe same page, it downloads it again. I want to save the same page and again it downloads it.
And what of radio over the net?
I got dial up at what is suppose to be 56k (earthlink) but they only give me at best 28.8......
And I believe I helped finance free cable boxes for other earthlink customers.....
SO what's the deal......with this concern over bandwidth????
Seems pretty clear to me that my ISP might give me more bandwidth and speed if other things I have no control over were better delt with, even spam mail accounts for more mail then I get otherwise.
Computers in general are ment to be an assist to productivity, not an industry to become master over all others.
That Ring is going to be melted down from wence it came. Microsoft is going to be put out of business, at least in the sence of the monopoly they have and continiously pursue, in defiance of court findings. They will be made equal in revenues vs. value output as comparied to other companies.
To compare MS revenues to that of Linux, is if anything, a measure of such monopolistic control. There are other companies in the world that are much larger, employ a great deal more people and generate far more value than MS. Not having the high profit margin as MS currently has only means they are not employing monopolistic practices to the extent that MS has been.
GNU/Linux is on the opposite end on the monopoly spectrum, the fact that it is making money at all is a very strong statement and testiment to it's strength and ability to compete even when it is free as a product.
It is known that MS has often caused consumer support for it's products to be shifted to OEMs like Gateway who have to incure the expense of such support, rather than MS doing it.
With Linux, there is no shifting of support in order to increase revenues or profit margins. A company producing a distribution also provides the support, perhaps it is even where they make money, in selling greater support for a product they package and customize.
Another way of looking at the lessor revenues Linux directly generates as comparied to MS products, is to consider how much the customer base is saving or otherwise has to spend on other things like hardware or even non-computer related items! This of course is something to consider as to how money flows thru the economy and what values it generates in doing so. Rather than so much money being focused thru a controlling point such as MS, the overall free market is bound to do better.
And who are the customer of GNU/Linux? Many ISPs, a very large part of the internet...... Think about how much more an internet acount might cost you, if Free Software or such, was not being used. How about the adoption and increasing adoption of Free and Open Source Software by governments? How much more would you be paying in taxes, if it wern't for Free and Open Sourse Software?
If anything, the articles talking about how much more revenues MS has then Linux only shows how abusive MS is being in the economy, and/or how supportive GNU/Linux is of a Free and Open MARKET, as is intended of a Free Enterprise capitalistic and competing Price/Product market.
Having Linux as a comparison base...... well every equasion has 2 tatements it makes.... Here, the other statement is simple about how abusive MS is in trying to control the economy or large part of it. And there are economic reasons why we have laws against such.....understand what those valid reasons are....
Writing articles that bluntly ignore the purpose of free enterprise of competitive markets while making it sound like such ignorance of the basics is a good thing for the market..........is highly deceptive and a promotion of ignorance is bliss. Only they are not telling you it's not your bliss, just your ignorance to support someone elses bliss.
So get a fu&in clue and pass the word about this revenue indicator and what it really means. And oh so how inline it is with the corporate value scams and stock market manipulations going on today.

"In the absence of hard information, the Washington Daily News printed a roundup of rumors. The "most persistent rumor" was that the saucers were American aircraft secretly produced by Boeing "at some remote site." An "absolutely weird" rumor was that the saucers were alien aircraft that had crashed and then been repaired and flown by the Air Force."
Seems to me they are confused. FreeSoftware supporters will limit their use of SELinux and that inturn will Limit..... well let's just say they can expect limited use of it, regardless of what dillusions they speak.
In the movie script business there is a form of copyright protection of scripts. You register your work with the writers guild and nobody gets to see it except under court order. The point being one of protection against what is called innocent plagerism.......(someone reads a script, thinks nothing of it and then a year later they re-invent it as their own, maybe without realizing it)
This proposed double standard basicly makes that serious crapola, as I'm sure many script writters use the internet.......in other words the entertainment industry is seriously shooting themselves in the foot.

A CIA Fact Sheet on Indonesia -- see the religion percentages (88% muslim).
OK, (given the above muslim population of indonesia): from the pbs trillion dollar bet article:
"In the summer of 1997, across Thailand, property prices plummeted. This sparked a panic that swept through Asia. As banks went bust from Japan to Indonesia, people took to the streets - events so improbable they had never been included in anyone's models."
and in Indonesia May 1998:
"Sources all over Asia tell Uscher that Asians know about local corruption but believe America is taking advantage of the situation to grab Asian markets and Asian wealth."
and (read the article!!!) another article from CNN:
"The austerity measures were a condition of the International Monetary Fund's $43 billion aid package to bail out the southeast Asian nation. "
World Bank wanted to help Indonesia out but charge interest (usery) entrapment???? Funny how China is the only country who did not participate in this stock game and are better off then the rest of us for not doing so.....
