There are very few shows which I actually enjoy and would like to watch.
You've missed the point You see, now you can go on Vacation - Like a cruise around the world or something and see your show when you get back.
The fact you only like a few shows just means you can go on vaction longer. You lucky bastard Because you only like a few shows, you can go on vaction for 3 months and then catch up on your favorite shows when you get back. Just think: Spend winter in a warm paradise then come back and when everyone else has reruns you get your favorite show.
In todays news Microsoft has been forced to admit their operating system suck yet again! Microsoft engineer Billy Joe Bob is quoted sayin "Welp we done found yet anouther bug in the werks and we are gunna just fix this right up fer ya".
Users are asked to visit Microsoft's site where they will be able to get an update. Users will only be required to tell Microsfot what's on their hard drive and why they have a dual boot setup with an unidentifiable operating system. Users will also have to agree to love Microsoft through the next three upgrade cycles.
Obviously, if the anti-theft devices go off, then they do have a reason to bother you.
I have bought things from stores many times where the anti-theft system went off anyway. I just kept walking. I know I paid for it and that's that. I have never been confronted by anyone about it.
The thing is I did actually pay for it and I didn't steal anything may have been a major factor. I assume if they thought I took something to begin with they may well atleast have confronted me.
Why doesn't hosting facility in Lindon, Utah just cancel SCO's account? After all SCO is the reason for all of these atacks.
If I were SCO's provider, I would cancel their service in a heartbeat. With reasonings such as excessive bandwidth usage and the like with out having to disagree or agree with SCO's point. SCO has become a liability to their service provider and the service provider has a right to cancel their service inorder to maintian the quality of service to their other customers.
(As a thought experiment, suppose California passed a law recalling any rights previously granted by the state legislature that citizens could keep and bear arms, which it can do, not being the federal congress, and then passes a law explicitly outlawing guns.) (Excepting the fact that this would be de facto political suicide over there...)
Your exercise is pointless, because your model doesn't include all of the variables. One major variable is called The National Supremacy Clause It's this little concept in American law that states that federal laws supercede state laws and is why state laws can be shot down in federal courts.
The National Supremacy Clause is the very reason for the 10th amendment...The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people...
Obviously I am not a US Lawyer. Obviously.
IANAL, but I did go to school. If I rememeber that's where they teach you things like this.
If it were easy/possible to decrypt the DirecTV signal without using the phone jack on the box, this would be a non-issue.
You really have no idea what you are talking about, do you?
You needn't be in contact with them to hack and decode an encrypted signal. If that were so, how would Mexicans and Canadians do it? You think DTV wouldn't have at the very least Caller ID that could tell them when someone was calling from outside the US?
But changing the medium iherently makes it something other than a copy
A DVD is a 'DVD Copy' of a movie and you can even find DVD's labeled as such on sale. Or with an other indication it's a DVD version of the movie. Without the indication, you could think you may be buying the film.
'DVD Copy' as a term lets you know it is a seperate work as a Copy would have to be on film. -Letterbox is the same thing, same with Pan&Scan -- if it were just a copy those things wouldn't exist
How do you think Disney re-copyrights their works far beyond 1 renewal?

The point is... You don't want them to make money off of you
Don't try saying that in Kentucky
Time to put Phoenix on my $#!+ list
For goodness sake, if you are going to post a comment like this PLEASE QUOTE THE PARENT!
I read the parent and went back to make sure this was talking about what I thought it was.
Just wait though... What do you think is going to happen when HDTV actually is used by enough people to matter?
Imagine Watching a Old TV show or one in 480... ---You don't think those grey bars on the side are going to be left unused, do you?
Doesn't Japan use NTSC like the US?

You only get 57 channel of crap? I got over 200 channels of crap.
I'm beginning to think of TV as spam.

Now I know what they mean when they say "You can't grep a dead tree".
You know the whining industry has been going strong in France since Roman times.
RFID tags are just the next part of the new over al plan. the plan is called:

I like to use those higher megapixle images so I can photograph a car accident from a mile way and digitally zoom in and get the license plate numbers

Theres nothing anonymous about cell technology
After all how are the radio waves going to find you if they don't know where you are?
Remember you point the arrow on the asprin to where it hurts so it knows where to go. - Same thing here
Funny enough I speak some (very little) Russian. I was going for 'The Simpson's' joke.
Does that mean In Soviet Russia, SCO Gives you money to run Linux?
No
