They belong to corporate america and are dispensed by the FCC which is under the control of corporate america.
Radio was a nice way to deliver 'censored' and 'politically correct' information to the masses but....
a new competitor has arrived. It's name is Wi-Fi and it scares the hell out of the cozy 'good ole boy corporate-government' network at D.C. because it costs them $$$ for all that spectrum they paid billions for.
It's just a matter of time before public pressure forces the SELLOFF of the corporate radio networks back to the government or some other WiFi businesses. Nobody wants one way RADIO anymore.
The FCC should NOT be in the position of selling spectrum to the highest bidder.It should be handing spectrum to WiFi networks where it will be used alot more efficiently and help serve the most people.
Rightwingers call everything communism that involve community effort. This is their cliched 'fire and brimstone' argument for everything. It's an attempt to win over weak minded folk that all government is bad.
Gov. electric utilities= communism. Gov. roads = communism. Gov. gaslines = communism. Gov. water utility= communism. Gov. public works projects(damns,parks,etc)= communism.
Military ????Ahhhhhh , here you will hear the hipocracy by the groveling sycophants proclaiming how great they love the Communist Military ? Could it be because the Corporate Party doesn't have any of their family members serving in this deadly occupation ?
Do any of you really believe the telephone companies wanted the internet to catch fire in the early days ? It would have eaten into profits.
Anyways the phone companies could have created a commercial internet but didn't . They wanted a high profits on longdistance calls and wanted nothing to do with flat fees.

TerraServer is way better than google satellite imagery.
Starts with a bad starting soundtrack to the show. Tried to be different there. Next was the show was way too dark looking, like the sets. There is also too much similarity now to other CGI shows. Maybe it's time to move away from CGI and go back to 'models' which are excellent in detail and realism.
Another small point is that most Star Trek fans could always expect to see beautiful women on the show. But not anymore. They took the hottest chick and turned her into an adrogenous man-woman. If they would have had any sexiness to Jolene Blaylock that would have converted to a couple of 'shares on the nielson ratings'. I would have stopped channel flipping if they costumed her anywhere as hot as her mzxim or stuff layouts. Jolene Blaylock dressed as a real hot vulcan would dress with disdain for clothing
If someone would manufacture a small form factor computer with great graphics card(mac) with some good software titles and game copy protections then alot would jump ship and abandon desktops.
The other week ago we were bombarded with 'stupid' google maps. Who gives a flip ! Microsofts terraserver is way better for satellite photos. Is it that hard to switch from a map site to a satellite photo site ?

Extras in the kernel can take down the whole system since linux is a monolithic instead of a microkernel .
It adds to security problems also .
Just an idea but why not implement some form of exokernel with linux so you can install or uninstall modules on the fly ?
Another idea which maybe offtopic is the use of another language other than C which causes all the buffer overflows(security problems).
Does OpenVMS have any of the problems Linux or Windows has ? No , because it uses languages like Hp ADA which has bounds checking.
Why does that not seem so fast for fiber ?
This is why we need muni FTTH .
I can only think of bittorrent as the only trustworthy filesharing program.
Kazaa has a 'ton' of bad dupes submitted by the Riaa.
Blubster is the only P2p I would use but it has a ton of ad/spware and the Riaa is putting their crappy dupes in that system too.
Wow , even downloading a torrent is impossible.
We have radio on the net and we can have something like cellphones with muni's using WiFi.
Costs would be way lower and could be another big new market for products.

Maybe I am an idiot but i had to actually read the article to know what the posted article was talking about.
Actually Hollywood hired some directors from the screening of shorts from sites like atomfilms.com .
I think the director of Elisha Custhbert's last movie was hired like this from reading his bio.
eric.
good link. There is one more that I used but i forgot the link to. It downloaded movies in the background while you surfed.
True artists don't care.
The amateur are producing short films already using broadband to distribute their films.

Sorry. but this is not offtopic !
Anyone else agree ?
Big waste of money.

I would.
What was that thing she was using to pound the alien ? Looked exoskeletonish to me.
Installing software ? Thats getting easier all the time.
Or is this a good antilinux campaign by Monopoly-criminalsoft.
Steve Jobs does the the same thing.
