Apple has stood firm against this, insisting that low, uniform prices keep sales high and discourage the iTunes Store's users from downloading music illegally.
I'm certain Microsoft will cave on this one. It has already given the music industry the other thing the industry has been demanding from Apple: a kickback on every player sold.
"These devices are just repositories for stolen music, and they all know it," said Doug Morris, CEO of Universal Music Group. "So it's time to get paid for it."
Maybe it's your thoughts that revolve around thoughts of sexual inadequacy.
flaccid (adj.)
1. Lacking firmness, resilience, or muscle tone. See synonyms at limp.

Along similar lines, it's possible to have a DV camcorder act as a VCR and then transfer it over FireWire to a Mac for editing.
I'm wondering if there's an affordable consumer product out there that acts solely as a VCR, but has a FireWire output for the digital data, without the video camera mechanisms that make DV camcorders more expensive.
And lest we forget:

Should the songwriters crack down on lyric sites? Maybe not. Can they? Absolutely. It's their work and they're free to flush it down the toilet if they want. They don't like the idea of other people profitting off of the fruits of the songwriters' labor, even if it doesn't mean increased income for them, and you can't really argue against their right to lay the crack down.
As someone who's tutored plenty of students in SAT's, I can say this: The SAT's may gauge intelligence, problem-solving ability, and test-taking skills, but just as much, if not moreso, it tests that student's resources.
I've had students who are extremely bright, but due to their poverty, just don't have the resources to compete with students who have the resources of, say, a George W. Bush. Their public schooling is atrocious, they don't have the money for lots of tutoring and several retests, they don't have access to information like free tutoring, free practice tests, and resources online.
The fact that so many people will take the SAT's as a cut and dry measure of one's smarts is disturbing to say the least. Unfortunately, much of the rest of the education is dependent on the child's wealth as well.

Careful you spell your name right, nissin, else someone may come knocking on your door.
I would prefer $3.9 billion a month went to c) the domestic front in healthcare for the poor and elderly, education, and social programs.
You mean hamburgers aren't made from ham? The horror!
