Q: So, why stymie that process with a new bureaucracy that simply funds the big record labels?
A: Lobbyists. You want stupid crap like this to stop then start revolting against the veiled bribes that politicians receive daily. Face it, the entire US Government is a joke.
I'm all for it. More stupid kids means less competition for me. I think it would be superb if we could figure out more ways to make our children less competitive in the world at large. Really, rewarding kids for success and trying hard is so 20th century. This is a new era. Lets all drive down to the walmart and celebrate!!!!

Your big concern is the P? Mine is the M for MySQL. The fact that so many people are learning about databases using it scares me almost as much as people learning about databases using Access.
Wow you're just so limited. Bah, when I started learning C I used dynamic allocation and the computer didn't even have 1MB of memory. So wtf are you complaining about? I wouldn't consider 16MB an embedded device. I call that a high end 386 or low end 486. Hell they used to sell the first pentiums with only 8MB of ram and windows 95 on it. Geeze.
It's the single worse assault to databases in the history of the world. I think it's some kind of punishment for people who've committed a sin in some past life to get hired to work on access applications. It's just ungodly bad, perl has nothing against access for being able to write bad code. Ugh, and they are trying to replace it. Destroying it would be a better idea. Erase its existence from the universe.
Bah I say! MS's orange books are normally very good. I have over 2 dozen and not one is biased or hypes microsoft products. Seems quite sad that the reviewer is more biased than the actual book. I have one MS orange book on my desk right now 'Inside SQL Server 2000'. It's quick to point out flaws in the design and implementation made by the SQL Server devel team. There's no hyping of SQL server and at times it even offers comparisons with Oracle and Sybase. It even goes in-depth about its origins. Now I've read books publish by MS Press that were just long ass press releases but never has one been an orange book.
Also, why the fuck should the trials affect what's being published. I'd be pissed off if MS didn't publish this book based on the trial. The trial is on MS business practices not it's publications.
*sigh*
PS: Any of you assholes want to point out spelling/grammar mistakes to attack what I've said you can do one thing: KISS MY ASS! Fucking pathetic fools who can't formulate an adequate response and instead has to nit pick to feel good.

My current job involves writing and working with access frontends and SQL server databases. Currently there is no other product that offers the ease of database conectivitly like access. Period. End of story. Sure you could write up something with perl or php, but thouse options lack so called 'bound controls'. Access is the RAD of database development. If you want something done semi-quickly and with as little pain as possible you generly use access as the front end. Many things writen in access would take half again as long at best in any other language. So don't diss access because it's microsoft. As of this point in time there really isn't anything that acutaly makes using databases something less than a migrane... (it's just a headache)
... Should instead increase exponentualy. So you get Price^number of patents already granted by the applicant. That way huge ass corporations can't keep a large cache of stupid patents and individual persons can still patent geniune inventions for a nonimal fee.
Grammar, grammer, spelling, to bad this is slashdot and not english, eh?
The one thing I've never seend addressed in any book dealing with programing for the web is how to seperate 1) programing logic from the html (tho not insanely hard) 2) seperating html from the acutal content. and 3) keeping sane. (Note: I really need some help with 3). One thing I do with my GUI programing is to abstract whatever toolkit I'm using within my program so I can protect myself from changes in the underlaying display logic. Ie: (myprogram_New_Window is the same regardless if I switch from GTK to QT to ncurses) There are no books that discuss diffrent methods on how to do with with web programs, pros and cons of diffrent methods etc. Also, I've yet to find any real good discussion on how to seperate your acutal content from the html. I would really like a book that describes when it's best to use a database or a meta-file format such as XML, etc. Because what I encounter the most is that clients have all of their content in html files, or their acutal program logic is centered around the output html, that when you go to change the layout and look of the site you basicly have to do everything by hand all over again. It would really be helpful to have information coverting these topics. Programing languages are really just means to an end. What is really useful are the ideas that are implimented with the languages.

CDex is a cdripper for windows that's GPLed. It comes with Vorbis support in its 1.30 beta2 version. Very nice program I use it when I'm in windows and don't want to reboot to use cdparanoia. It also includes LAME 3.84 as it's default encoder. Currently it's the only program that i've found that makes encoding Vorbis.ogg files easy. CDex Homepage, and Source Forge.
This isn't a script that runs inside of Outlook people. It's a VBScript that runs using the Windows Scripting Host. It's just like a bash script, or a perl script. SAME DEAL. It's just like people getting an.EXE in the mail and running that. It's a trojan not a virus. There are two reasons this caused so much damage. Reason 1, people are stupid. Plain and simple. Reason 2, people aren't used to seein files with a.vbs extension. If someone got a.pl in the mail and ran in on their unix box and it fucked shit up, everyone would be like "STUPID USER!". With this everyone is going "MICROSOFT BAD, DIE MICROSOFT!!!". Now granted Outlook security is extreamly lacking but this is not a fault in Outlook. It's a fault of people and people are dumb.

I'm not a paranoid freak, but that's just me.
What's it like having to choose between the RIAA or P2P users? Either way you're screwed so which feels better?

Oh yea, because it's just THAT hard to hit the lil down arrow?
Nah... your head just explodes.
Why does it cost close to 30$ for a 30 minute disc? Isn't that a bit much?
It's just that there's not to many things canadians can be proud of. Apparently a diffrent sugar in coke is one of the few....
