My vote is for the Apple store. I love their site. The prices and right there, and the photos are huge. I go there every few months to fantasize about owning an ibook. Kitchen Etc has a pretty good site too. I've never bought anything from either of them but I just like their designs- I think they get it right.
Remember when people used to broadcast software over pirate FM radio stations? (I don't. But they did once.) I bet you couldnt do that with a lossy compression, but I wonder if you could crank the compression up high enough to get it through? Is there an mp3 setting that is essentially just a wave file?
It doesn't seem appropriate that these ISPs turn around and deactivate you for something they can simply block- disallowing TCP protocols 50 and 51 (mind you, not TCP ports 50 and 51, there is a sharp difference) would block VPN access.
I surmise that non-commercial grade VPN software resolves merely to ssh tunnel/ppp/routing hacks- unreliable and costly, overhead wise. With the purchase of ATTBI in the Northeast, there's wonder as to whether the new owner's VPN policy will override the existing (currently residential customers are allowed VPN)

No way. Not from a country with cubic watermelons.
