Well Android has good legacy support, so I'm not sure what their incompatibility problems are, besides cheap Androids that just aren't well made (you get what you pay for).
Well, the whole "own vs. license" thing means I'm not completely wrong, and I'm not going to disregard that argument because it works nicely for you.
You're licensing ebooks off Amazon, not buying the ebook file. They make this clear in the EULA.
If you don't like it (and I don't either), then choose another epublisher.
Obviously providing the means to download relatively small files is cheaper than manufacturing and shipping books, so good thing something might be done about it.
If you have an Android (or possibly other type of) smartphone, the display usually uses around 60-80% of the battery. And that's on small displays designed for energy efficiency.

Astroturfing, like this summary for example.
Android doesn't infringe on patents.
Is this a serious fucking argument?
You can use Android apps without Android. Fuck off.
Well, yeah. If you want the functionality and it's not built in, you have to find someone else who wrote a solution or do it yourself. dumb fuck
what an ignorant comment. how was this modded up to 5?
I like how everyone is assuming YouTube is a profitable website. Google's doing the internet a service keeping it up.

They were hosting illegal content. I know it's nice to get outraged about (especially because of the books banned), but you're picking a fight.
If you want some idea, you could go look at "Top Grossing" in the market. Or you can keep asking rhetorical questions ;D

I feel like whenever that tablet is mentioned in reply to iPad-praising posts, it goes right over the Apple aficionados' heads.
Id say 0% due to slashdot, nerds are already pissed at them for it regardless of apology.
Sorry, but that sounds like a really lame gift.

It's an opt-in notification that you get the first time you turn on the phone, then it never bothers you again.
A lot of indie "hipster" bands have biodiesel vans for touring.
The smart ones arrange in advance to pick up some from restaurants, since it's not really in the restaurant's best interest to sell the stuff.
Some band called OFF! got busted for it a couple months ago. http://www.punknews.org/article/42020
You realize this is not a counter-argument, and she has not benefited from you saying this?
Not that it isn't boring news, but the "its" the in title implies "in that region"
Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday, Friday.
Sorry, but what are you using to search your files?
I sense a problem.
Sure, but you're grasping at straws, since it makes complete sense to read it either way.
