it is not nessecery to be a reviewer to get screeners sent, when I was still in the UK I was a member of BAFTA. I worked for an advertising agency 10 years ago in there tech support department and the annual bafta signup drive went round and I put my name down, for 8 years I just kept renewing my subscription, my last subscription fee was around $75 and for that I got to watch films at the bafta cinema for free, drink at the bafta bar (tax free alcohol).
Anyway the point of this is that I have every film released over the 7 - 8 year period on vhs and later DVD, all for my consideration.
We did get that mp3 one, but the user had to try really hard not to damage the file while copying it or the virus would be automatically deleted by the os
about 3 years ago I had over 12 TVs in the one house all store bought and wasn't required to pay more. this doesn't contradict your post, it is perfectly possible that at some point I would have been contacted about them.
does winamp have a store? from what I can work out, and you can correct me if I am wrong. the DRM is only available on music store purchased tracks, and no matter how hard you try it cannot be enabled on personal tracks
don't buy music from itunes music store = all the great features of winamp (minus some of the not so great) + better mp3 archive management.
There are fundamental and legetimate reasons why MS has gotten to where they are and why they still remain; not least of which is Linux's failure to make an O/S as user-friendly as XP and to market their products effectively.
So Microsoft got to where it is today because Windows XP is the most user-friendly O/S.
Sorry could you clarify that argument for me? It seems a bit confusing. what about before XP was around?
the reason I stopped using RPM's in the first place was because they listed individual files as there dependencies
at last the package managers start doing the right thing and listing packages instead of there contents and you jump in and say duh don't do that
the worst thing about rpm in the old days was installing a package and having the message depends on libfoo.so.1 then hunting through the rpm files guessing which one might satisfy that dependency could it be foolib-1.3.rpm, libfoo-1.3.rpm, fooheaders-1.3.rpm
next time you want to jump around with your opinions try and remember your history
cereal box = 500g+ of cereal in one plastic wrap and a box pocky = 6chocolate diped bread sticks in a foil bag x 3 in a box
the ratios are just crazy. i have a box of 24 digestive biscuits infront of me it contains 8 packets of 3 biscuits in a molded plastic tray
it seems that the japanese are very concerned with recycling but then just go and overpackage everything as an outsider the attitude appears to be "it doesnt matter how much packaging we use because it will be recycled"
apple refer to there container format, player and codecs all as quicktime. the story should have arguably refered to it as the quicktime aac codec or possibly the apple quicktime aac codec or even the apple propriatory quicktime aac compression engine
but it just used quicktime and we all knew what it ment
I don't have any direct numbers that can detail just how many of these 291 million Americans are users of p2p. Let's say it's 50%, then wouldn't the drop be in usage be more like 6.5%? -/+ a few points? I'm sure there is a/.er out there that can help us out.
if aprox 13% of the whole nation were travaling then aprox 13% of all sample groups would be travaling
if you halve the sample group you dont halve the travaling %

Welcome to Japan, land of distribution companies.

... I think
But it does still count
no it isn't
xxxx
means that at a later date you don't have to search through every html doc because somebody decided that a red background would look better.
quoting from grandparent ...
...
why not provide shows on bit torrent?
is it because it's harder to advertise?
quoting myself
because its the BBC there are no monitory gain requirements from any broadcasting project.
if it was cheeper than sending over the air they could stamp DVDs of all there tv show and leave them on street corners.
not fud, not comparing tv shows with physicals objects
comparing distribution methods
currently for the BBC is transmitting a broadcast over the air is the most cost effective way of getting there content to the viewers.
If any other method proves to be more cost effective the BBC will pursue it. they have no requirement to generate revenue from there shows.
that is my point and my post history proves I have never commented on anything relating to the riaa/mpaa

Saturday night live
Who's the boss (though we got Honor Blackman)
The Jack Doccety Show (cant spell Doccety)
others, dunno.
Often is not the right word, but it does happen.

you mean 3 underpriced XServe Boxes. go check out the prices of sans
because then it will be forked once more

its better than when I was using a dv converter that did almost 15 gigs per hour
hopefully soon I will get a machine fast enough to demux / re-encode this stuff on the fly
as more and more data is being stored (TV shows, Movies, Music and yes Pr0n too) the drives are being filled at an alarming rate
saving HDTV is killing my disks I don't know what it is like in the US but here in Japan its a 19 meg stream for each channel
you will be very pleased to hear that the sipphone fulfils both of your criteria
it is using a standard protocol (the main point of the interview)
and it is packaged in a convenient form
1 open box
2 plug it in
3 use
they had 150% of the revenue of microsoft 20+ years ago before the dos/pc explosion that made microsoft into the company it is today
and apple was already dying then
thats the point
poor spellers are also poor thinkers.
poor thinkers might be poor spellers but the same cannot be directly assumed for the reverse.
think before you type.

but it just used quicktime and we all knew what it ment
because it is an aac test not a general format test
the listening test compared various aac compression engines and ranked them on the final quality
it also only tested the codecs at 128kbits/sec it is possible (likely) that the ranking would be diferent at higher and lower rates

of course I might be wrong but I cant think of a single apple cocoa app that uses a disclosure triangle
its in the carbon api
if you want to use disclosure triangles do what apple does and use carbon but dont complain that they are hiding the api from you when it doesnt exist
grrrr I ment checked
having a neighbour with wifi was extreemly helpful when I had to phone the cableisp to bitch about there service being down
have you check your cables?
yes I have also check the cables of the guy next door
what do you mean?
his cablemodem is offline too
oh!
