  2. Home recording for the rest of us on Professional Audio on Linux? · · Score: 0

    I don't want Cape Canaveral on my PC, I just want a Linux app that works at least as well as Cool Edit Pro for Windows! Maybe Demudi will get there someday, but right now they can't even keep their website up.

  4. Re:Live Version on Napster Clawing Back · · Score: 0

    The telephone version is Daniel Johnston singing his song with Yo La Tengo. The Brit version is the Pastels. Now go out and support these artists by paying for the music, ya cheap bastard.

    Actually, huffing gas will destroy your liver even more swiftly and thoroughly than alcohol!

  6. Re:windows xp is the shit. on LWCE Bits and Pieces · · Score: 1

    I've been running Windows XP for the last couple of weeks. It's amazingly fast and stable. The interface is clean and intuitive. Can't wait to see what developers do with it. The drivers and gaming support are awesome. Truly an amazing OS, maybe the best yet.

  17. It will never work! on Solar Power in the Third World · · Score: 1
    Don't you understand, conservation, alternative energies,etc will not break dependence on fossil fuels!

    More drilling is the answer, no matter what these loony tree-hugging liberal third world commies think.

    I know this because George W. Bush said so!

  18. Re:why didnt they stop at 98? on Microsoft and the GPL · · Score: 1

    wow.

  19. Re:Eben Moglen (from another forum) on CDDB on Roxio Countersues Gracenote · · Score: 1

    You're just not allowed to tell other people what to do with facts.

    So what's all the fuss about DMCA? Isn't there a lot of movement on the corporate front to prevent the free exchange of facts?

  20. Reason to hate @Home ? on @Home Cuts Newsgroups Due to DMCA Complaints · · Score: 1

    I have been hating on them for a while, due to general slowness and retention issues, plus capping my upload (can everybody say, "luxury problems"?) But I don't really think you can pin this on them; rather I believe the blame lies with Bill Clinton, who gave life to the DMCA and gave the entertainment industry the power to destroy anyone who steps on their toes.

  21. Re:i hate ms on Windows XP to Target MP3 Files · · Score: 1

    Innovative UI features ripped off from Xfreeee, Enlightenment, Gnome, etc.

  22. Re:A naive question on Napster Usage Quadruples · · Score: 1

    Thanks for the feedback...But again, just like the 'numbers' type of rationale for criminalizing Napster, the 'sound quality' argument seems impossible to quantify..In other words, how much noise needs to be introduced before the copy can be considered no longer in violation of copyright? And wile MP3's may not lose quality with successive copies, I can still tell the difference between them and the originals (but they *do* sound good on my fisher-price headphones :)...Sorry if I'm veering off topic...

  23. Re:Great unless you create content on Napster Usage Quadruples · · Score: 1

    I can't speak for anybody else, but I have bought around 5 cds in the last month or so based on what downloaded from Napster. Then I deleted the cruddy 128 bitrate files and made 160's of the same songs and some others as well, for personal (and yes, public) use.

  24. A naive question on Napster Usage Quadruples · · Score: 1

    Though I have been following this whole thing and have pondered the ethical/moral/ and okay enen legal aspects of the case, one thing I have never heard adequately explained is how using Napster to share files is any different than what i spent my whole misspent youth doing - namely, making mix tapes of music to swap with friends. Is it just a matter of the *numbers* involved? Or is it just that it's so public and blatant? Insight please!
