You're doing it wrong. If it's in your iTunes Library, and selected for sync, it'll sync.
I've sync'd Amazon purchases, CD rips, and Internet Archive downloads (concerts and movies) to my iPod with no problem
Old adaptations are pretty common--take the Osage-Orange, for example. Nothing eats it, nothings disperses the seeds anymore; the creatures that probably fed on it and spread the seeds went extinct long ago (giant ground sloths, etc). It would have likely gone extinct too, but we humans planted the tree for windbreaks and for useful wood.
Is Google going into the libraries and destroying all extant copies of these books? That's the only way they'd be the "exclusive source of access to these books."
John Barrie, the creator and owner of the Turnitin service, responded to issues of student ownership of their creative works in the May 17, 2002 issue of the Chronicle of Higher Education, freely available online. He syas, in response to the charge that "students feel coerced into submitting their papers to the service, and . ..that they objected to handing over their work because doing so would undermine their legal rights":
"Mr. Barrie responds that professors can explain to students why that assertion is wrong -- as he argues -- or just tell them, 'Write as much creative stuff as you want -- just don't do it at this institution.'"
Seriously, what kind of idiotic advice is this? For that reason alone, I will not use Turnitin, even though the University where I teach has just purchased a license. We are currently debating how it will be used on our campus, which I won't mention here (though you could find it easily enough I suppose; it's probably in my profile).
He was also the guy behind the Ann Coulter plagiarism story a few months back. When her editor wanted his evidence, he told them they'd have to subscribe to his service. When others did look into it, plagiarism was found, but his handling of it is the work of an attention-seeker, at best (a scam-artist at worst).
Yes, they are. But why are these considered the relevant differerces? What about hair and eye color? There are hundreds if not thousands of genetic differences. Which ones count?
The question of "race" is problematic, as the parent post itself shows. For examples of race, the poster gives "African-American," "Chinese," and "Jewish."
Which of these are "races"? Is race determined by continent of origin? Country? Region (Tay-Sachs affects the Ashkenazi Jews--are they a separate race from the Sephardic)?
Of course there are genetic differences between groups. But these variations do not match up very well with conventional (cultural) concepts of race, which are often based simply on skin color or other physical attributes, and sometimes on national origin.
Source for a jazz improv would be the chord changes to the (likely copyrighted) song the musicians are improving over. In fact, this is a good example of "fair uses" likely not permitted under strict copyright protections, but which go on all the time (thankfully).

But you can distrubute it freely, without DRM, outside of the iBooks store, as long as you don't charge for it.

Andrew Sulliva;s Virtually Normal has been delisted: http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2009/04/amazon-delists-gay-books-as-adult.html Sullivan's post may be misleadingly titled: is Virtually Normal, (a non-fiction book about gay rights, from a conservative perspective) a "gay-themed" book? Or is it just that its politics is likely to make someone uncomfortable?

I teach at GMU (English); the library here has links to both Zotero and Endnote (with a site license for the latter. I wonder how much that cost?).
I plan to ask the library to drop the license for Endnote; why pay them to sue us?
I encourage my research writing classes to use Zotero anyway.

The machines in question (in Virginia) are not Diebold machines. They are AVS.
I've purchased a few old blues records (Mississippi John Hurt's Avalon Blues, for example) at 7.99 for an album, with over a dozen tracks per.
