  1. My Favs on Will the Web Replace TV? · · Score: 1
  2. Season 3 on Red vs. Blue Season 2 Hits DVD on August 2nd · · Score: 1

    Just thought I'd mention that they have already confirmed to the sponsors that there will be a season 3. They haven't set a date, but hinted that it would be early Fall.

  3. Where's the content I paid for? on Canadian Music Industry Wants Royalties on Net Usage · · Score: 1

    My problem with this situation is the same one that I have with the current CD tariff. I use black CDs all the time for backing up my HDs and for Linux distros. I have bought a over 100 blanks in the last couple of years.

    But the thing is, I don't like most of the music that's being put out these days. There are a few bands that I don't mind but nothing that I really go out of my way for, so therefore I don't copy my friends CDs and don't download much from the internet. But I still have to give the recording industry my money. So my question is, if I'm paying for all of this content, where is it?

    This is the problem with blanket royalties, it assumes that I'm a criminal and punishes me for it. Even though I have no interest in the product that I'm suppose to be stealing.

    It really pisses me off because not only I'm I paying for content that I'm not recieving, but it also means that if I actually want to support an artist and buy their content, I'm paying for it twice.

    And now if they bring in the internet tariff I'll be paying again, from something I STILL DON'T WANT!
