..A DIGITAL TUNER is a device that selects an analog signal using a digital specification of the desired frequency. Doesn't matter if the signal itself is analog, digital, or whatever. A TUNER doesn't even DEMODULATE it. It just shifts its frequency to that of the IF amplifier (perhaps also amplifying it a bit and starting the process of filtering out nearby signals by attenuating those that are more than a few megahertz away from the desired signal.)
A DIGITAL RECIEVER (ei)takes a DIGITAL SIGNAL and extracts the modulation.
The post refers to neither specifically. If you want to be pedantic, then referring to a TUNER or a RECEIVER in these cases is meaningless, lazyspeak like calling a VCR a video, and a video cassette, a video also.
To use your reasoning, I should expect modulated IF to come out of the phono sockets on the rear of my VHF "tuner", unless it is referred to in the brocure as a "receiver", which should then have loudspeakers, otherwise it's not doing it's job...?!?!?!?!
Who Cares? It's mainly marketing BS anyway, so bollocks to the terminology in these sort of low precision discussion areas. It's not rocket science.
And workplace dress codes make you dress up like these crooks to look "professional". Seems to me the new 'Corporate look' will be pajamas with arrows on them. B'stards.
I'd like to see the serial port, parallel port, PS/2 mouse & keyboard port all go away. Firewire and USB can replace that and more...
And the screen! And that damn keyboard. Lose them all.We don't need all those fans or the CPU. The less stuff in the box the bette... THE BOX!! LOSE THE BOX!!
this is really a shame. hp was one of the technology companies that had a lot going for it.
Blame the buggering beancounters. The buggers. They will bugger up everything. Bugger them.
We need a war against beancounters. They are the real problem. And they breed like lice.

Exactly. The ideas you have put forward here are probably what 99.9% of the tech-savvy public does indulge in. It's the 0.1% that are OTT in "file sharing to the world, etc" that the heavy handed basts like the RIAA like to portray everyone as when they go braying to their paid congress monkeys and legal leeches.
So, the way forward is indeed the way that things are moving thru natural selection (check out the later chapters of Clarke et al "The Light of Other Days", in which a technical 'omniscient camera' goes from a secret installation in a bunker to a set of DIY plans for a handheld device available on the web and built from scrap).
Laws can't halt progress; history tells us so.

Make your own music. Heck, someone has to make it.
Is that even possible? How do you know that when you write a song, you won't "accidentally" borrow a melody from another existing song?
Of course it's possible. Do you think there is something impossible about musicians?
What if you do borrow a melody. There is no law against performing someone else's music. Where would Las Vegas be without all those Elvii?
