There is a difference between what you get with the sample and what you get when you pay for the download. I don't know what it is, but I just paid for two songs that the sample worked fine, but the download won't play in linux. I assume it is the same way with Macs.
No he didn't. He was miffed because spamcop blacklisted his providers ip and was bouncing email from his list. He discussed bouncing spam mail vs tagging spam mail and suggested that tagging was a better solution. The word Bayesian doesn't show up anywhere on a search of his site.
I've seen this quote several places, I thought it applied here.
"When they took away the Fourth Amendment, I said nothing. I didn't deal in drugs. When they took away the Sixth Amendment, I said nothing. I was innocent. When they took away the Second Amendment, I said nothing. I didn't own a gun. Now they've taken away the First Amendment, and I can say nothing." -- Unknown
Win 2000 here with netscape 4.73. No problems either, it just asked me once if I wanted to let it run netscape, I told it no, and the page stopped loading. Might cause a problem in IE, but I don't use that piece of junk so I'll never know.
"And these guys are just selling T-Shirts. Sure, some of them happen to have Napster logos on them, but it's not their fault if the concertgoers choose to buy those. After all, they haven't taken anything from Napster. Napster still has their logo. Napster didn't pay anything to produce the shirts.
Now I'm certain that these gents are issuing a disclaimer of some sort at the merchandise tables, but there's too few of them to regulate what the crowds at these concerts are going to buy. They just make it available and hope their fans choose wisely"
Actually, your analogy is flawed. A better analogy would be Offspring fans selling or giving away Napster T-shirts to other Offspring fans at an Offspring concert.
I remember reading something about a guy in Russia producing Windows Beer and that he had a trademark on Windows for food, drink and tobacco products. I think that as long as the products weren't related, two companies could have the same trademark. So create a company that has products unrelated to Coca-Cola and trademark Coke. Then you can argue that you have a trademark for Coke too. Of course IANAL, so this might not hold up in court. Any lawyers out there that know if this would work?

Yeah, or call it C! and expect us to call it C Exclamation Point instead of C Bang. Idiots.
