my wife has one of the new 10G ipods with the dock. i had been using it with our windows pc, but then we got a powerbook, so i began using it with that. i added songs to it, and the first time she used it, the ipod did the same thing described in the article -- it started skipping through, playing 0 seconds of each song. i simply reformatted it with software downloaded from apple's web site and it fixed it.
as a result of lucas' desire to forgo set-building and create everything using CGI, it shows that what really suffers is the acting. when all you're doing is standing in front of a blue screen looking at a prop that's supposed to represent a "character to be named later," i'd imagine it's difficult to know just what kind of emotion the scene requires. so you get the kind of wooden, i-barely-just-memorized-my-lines acting that, for me, was a real distraction during the movie. anyone else feel the same way?
this is comparable to sony's music division suing p2p companies for contributing to copyright infringement while sony's electronics division tries to make money off mp3 players. i'm waiting for media conglomerates to get so huge that their subsidiaries sue each other without even realizing they're owned by the same company.
