This should be protected by the first sale principle of the copyright law. I buy a video, I hire clean flicks to remove the stuff I don't want my kids to see. I keep the edited copy they make.

Arabica coffee has half thae caffeine of robusta coffee to start with, so if you drink gormet coffee, and not the stale, pre-ground shiat in a can, you already are much better off. Most people who get tense or get the shakes from drinking coffee are drinking the cheap stuff. You know what else? Arabica coffee is the original coffee plant. Robusta is a hybrid, designed to deliver higher yields, grown in a wider variety of climates, and be resistant to disease. Too bad it tastes like shiat, and is overloaded with caffeine.

This could backfire on Marvel. It is like prosecuting fans who write fanfic for copyright violation. While they are creating derivative works without authorization, and copyright law bans this, they are usually doing no harm, and smacking them down will create a lot of enemies for the copyright holder. Enemies aren't customers.
If playing a game where you run people over with a car to score points is how you get your jollies, there is something wrong with you. Studies suggest that people who enjoy this kind of thing are frequently sociopatic. Check out these links.
Hollywood and the recording industry can produce crippled media, but we, the customers don't have to buy them. Let them gather dust, and they will die like Divx.(The crippled DVDs, not the current video format.)
If grousing informs people who didn't already know that this stuff exists before they waste their money, it serves a useful purpose.
Mary Bono as head of the RIAA? Consider that she is the widow of Sonny Bono, who wanted to make copyright perpetual, after whom the Sonny Bono Copyright Extension act was posthumously named. She would likely go out of her way to kill off fair use and the public domain forever, the first sale principle is probably in her crosshairs too. Could there possibly be a worse person for the job? We could soon find ourselves missing Hilary Rosen. Boycott the recording industry. Don't buy CDs.
How can any earth-based company claim trademark rights to an alien OS we got from the Roswell UFO? Another curious question is why Microsoft bought a license from SCO when they have already used UNIX technology for mind control.
It's not the metric system, it's the martians, or Zhti Ti Kofft as they call themselves. These probes will probably suffer the same fate as Mars Polar Lander. and Mars Climate Orbiter. We probably already know a little more about Mars than they want us to.
A lot of us do still watch broadcast TV. Cable and satellite are still out of reach for the poor, and too damn expensive for the frugal. I would hate to see free TV go away, but in the United States of Avarice, I know it will happen.

Tyson and Pilgrim's Pride could save themselves a lot of time and trouble by switching to Chick'N.
They will just need to contact New Dawn Biotech in Alberta to negotiate licensing.
Why do we need high-tech whizbangs like rockets and space planes? I think NASA is on to something with the X-4000 Launch Aparatus, a simple and inexpensive old school design.
You know, that wouldn't surprise me. IBM has agents and moles all over the place. I wonder if the SEC will uncover any of the really criminal stuff IBM is into. A little securities fraud is small potatoes.
The BBC now reports that life on Mars was discovered by the Viking probe in the '70s. The Uncoveror has been reporting this for years! It is about time this got more press coverage. Here are some links.

A side-effect of all this tinkering has been flesh-eating termites!

No, it's UNIX that came from outer space. Specifically, it came from the Roswell UFO. Microsoft has even used this alien technology for mind control
More about these issues.
Our Fuhrer, Dubya falls off of a Segway!
They will keep saying that nothing happened in Roswell, and even producing forged documents, but the truth is we got UNIX from the Roswell UFO, and Microsoft has used that technology for mind control. The government, especially the Air Force and NASA know a lot more than they are letting on. In fact, an invasion may be imminent.
That penalty was a slap on the wrist, but consumers can really punish the recording industry by boycotting them. Let CDs gather dust on the shelves.
