Fuck what the US wants. The US always get what it wants. Let someone else decide something for a change.
The US wants this...
The US wants that...
The US wants this...
The rest of us want the US and the chimpanzee running it to shut the fuck up.
I'm not old enough to remember, but did the wagon wheel industry try and pressure the government into manipulating the marketplace when the rubber tire boys crashed the party?
Mr Berman also noted that for the first time since 1966, the top selling album in the US in 2001 - Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park - had sold less than five million copies, while the IFPI estimated that some four million copies had been downloaded from the internet.
Hey, if the Lincon Biskut is the best the music industry can do in terms of product than they deserve to go out of business.
Such a step could provide the necessary incentive for artists and record labels to go on making music, he said
Ya, any artist who stops making music just because they can't make a truckload of money on it is an artist who's music is probably shit anyway. People have been making music for thousands of years and I hate to break it to Mr. Best Buy, but people are going to continue to make it for thousands more; regardless of the state of copyright protection and music sales.
If anything the people who are just in the business to make money will be the first to exit once the money dries up. Good riddence! Perhaps then real artists will begin to get some of the recognition they deserve.
...In subscribing to one of these services and giving them hundreds of dollars only to have all of your music taken away from you when you unsubscribe. I don't know about anyone else but I've never seen the point in music rental services.
If you're looking for a good soundcard for your laptop checkout either the EgoSys WamiBox or the Echo Mona Laptop. Both cards put Creative labs new addition to this market to shame.
If it's truely a lack of content that is hindering the adoption of broadband in the US, do Canadians and Koreans have access to some secret content providers that US citizens don't? You could argue that government intervetion is responsible for wider spread broadband access but I can tell you that the government up here in Canada sure as hell isn't paying my, or anyone else's, broadband bills.
Perhaps it's the long cold months we spend inside during the winter with nothing to do but watch sh###y Network TV and Hollywood movies that drive us to spend our money on a fast internet connection.
I noticed a marked increase in the number of virtual insturments and plug-ins I can run on my digital audio workstation (DAW) at home and another identical set-up, ave for the increased chip speed, at a friends studio. I see a definite market for the increased chip speed amongst people using PCs for intensive video and audio work.
No ASIO drivers were made made available for the Live card. I hear that there will be ASIO drivers bundled with the Audigy. This probably won't make a bit of difference to 98% of people who own a soundcard. However, people who are trying to build a Digital Audio Workstation cheaply will rejoice, although why you would do this with a creative labs product I don't know. There is a big difference between 10ms (pro card) and 100+ms(the Live) latency times when working with audio. Hopefully the audigy will adress this.
I've always thought the same thing about the oil and auto industries. However in light of the deteriorating situation in the middle east do you think that some of the barriers that may have stood in the way of this might not be removed or relaxed?
Some political pressure from the right people could potentially cut the time to market on this and similar products substantially.
Sort of like arresting a guy on the street because hegave out directions to a KPMG office. "I'm sorry son, only KPMG is allowed to tell people where they are, you'll have to come with me.."

You've still more chance of winning the lottery than dieing in one.
Speak for yourself, but I'm planning on winning the lottery. I'm staying out of the sky.

...ZeoSync and eventually we'll all be able to watch a 30 minute TV program in 30 seconds without missing a thing.
They forgot Nintendo's ROB the Robot. As far as I know it was the pinacle of modern video game mis-design.
