This article didn't mention it, but I read elsewhere that Laurence Canter was later disbarred, and is nolonger an attorney. If so, maybe there is some justice after all.
Apple should worry about what their customers think, not what the RIAA thinks. When money changes hands, and a customer buys something, it becomes his or her personal property to use as he or she sees fit. DRM is a batant attempt to tell people what they can and can't do with their property even after the sale. Sorry Apple, that is a right that you lost once the sale was made.
Since Apple doesn't respect the property rights of their paying customers, they deserve to lose them, just like the record labels.
I plan to take an old-fashioned push reel lawnmower to the street corner, tell people it's a Segway, and see how many chuckleheads bust their asses or crack their skulls trying to ride it.
Here is some more Frankenstein science to worry about from a company called New Dawn Biotech: Treemeat Chick'N Egg Bushes
If that weren't enough, the new McNuggets at Mcdonalds aren't all white meat. In fact, they aren't even chicken!
Gail Zappa is a golddigger. That's why she married someone famous in the first place. What Frank would think and fifty cents will get you a can of pop.
It looks like the X-43 program is going somewhat well in spite of the failure on the first fligh, but I wonder how the X-4000 program is going. NASA doesn't say on their website.
The DMCA basically gives any copyright holder the right to issue subpoenas. That is just one of many things wrong with it. The DMCA is the most glaring example of copyright as a form of censorship ever passed into law.
Public libraries didn't kill book publishers. Online ones won't either, neither will file trading kill the recording industry. Stopping the concept of a public library from going online, whether for books or for music, is so censorship.
If profit is the only thing that means anything, then I guess public libraries have got to go.
Just because you can't find it easily doesn't mean that it should be free for the taking.
Why not? Copyright is nothing but a form of censorship. If an idea, once expressed cannot be re-expressed without permission and/or payment, then freedom of expression has no meaning. The framers of the constitution thought this form of censorship would be a goos thing so long as it was temporary and "to promote the progress of science and the useful arts." Locking up software so no one can use it, or any other form of creative expression has ceased to serve that purpose. Perhaps it never did.
This is not the only robot making music. Several years ago, a post in a chat room said, "In the future, popular music will be made by robots, and the kids won't be able to tell the difference." You may be surprised to learn that this has already happened.

This video is a hoax. Okay, one sighting has been debunked. One among thousands! Before you decide that there is just no such thing as Bigfoot, read this.
...but not the courts. At least not this one. The RIAA are the real criminals here, and the ones who should be sued. I hope that Michele Scimeca, the lady in New Jersey suing them for extortion and racketeering wins. Read more about what's wrong with the recording industry at www.dontbuycds.org
There is a lawsuit against attorney Kevin O'Leary, an heir of Mrs. O'Leary over that fire. Maybe he should bring the comet theory to the court's attention. He certainly doesn't want to be held responsible for the actions of a cow long before he was born, especially if the cow is innocent.

No more Iomega products? I think the click of death and the blue screen of death made a nice pair!

I wouldn't want all our base to belong to them!
Considering that the philosopher Voltaire drank 50 to 72 cups per day, I don't think 100 would be lethal, either.
Wow! $189.00! Mine cost $67.50

It will all be part of Total Information Awareness, which isn't gone since Congress defunded it, it only went back underground.

I am curious. If everyone hates lawyers, why do so many people watch all the shows about them?
I am confused. Is the capitol of California Sacramento or Hollywood?

Letters? A bunny? Those are nothing. The most amazing find was an Arizona Cardinals ballcap. Maybe it's a hoax, or maybe the Martians are cards fans.

Har, ye bilgerat! Pirating be robbery, rape, murder and the occasional buggery on the high seas not copyin' things.
