We hit the mute button, or better fast forward when those ads come on. I have a young daughter, and those ads do nothing but plant the seed in her mind that all problems can be solved with a pill. Granted, there are some ppl that will truly benefit from taking those medicines, but out of those, how many would not have equally benefited from just going to see their doctor if something was wrong?
As an earlier poster noted, most ppl would not have these problems if they would watch their diet and exercise. These ads are bad because they tell ppl that it is not their responsibility, and that they are not accountable for how they treat their body. Everything can be taken care of by taking this pill.
Air that dry would also pose a threat in office buildings due to the amount of static electricity. During the dust bowl, it was so great that it would prevent cars from running.
3 1/2. Break support for the itunes application, refuse to fix it, and break it again everytime apple comes up with a work around. Somehow, this will have to be apple's fault.
But really, did Microsoft get Microsofted by Apple? Signs are pointing to yes. 1. They are completely entrenched in the culture as an abstract thing. Most music players are called ipods, even if they are in fact, not. 2. The interface for the ipod itself and the application are easy enough for most ppl to use out of the box. 3. The store interface is stylish, the prices are reasonable, and you don't have to maintain a monthly rental fee.
A very good tool, though I was discouraged to see a lot of the groups that I like going from Indy labels to RIAA labels.
Does anyone else think that its weird that when you search for an artist, and it comes up as being on a label associated with the RIAA, it gives you a warning, but still gives you a nice button to buy it from Amazon?
