If all the songs on an album would be good, I'd buy the entire album. Unfortunately, in most cases very few songs on a CD are really of good quality. This selective purchase power that the consumer has started to enjoy through the iTunes music store should be encouragement for the musicians to keep up the maximun quality throughout their albums, and not just produce one good song, and fill the rest with crap just to fill the CD. One good example,IMHO, is David Bowie's Heather album. I bought the entire CD, not just one song.

I just hope the Specs are real.
This is exactly the reason why this is also good news for Mac users. Apple has to be competitive with the pricing of the new PPC970 based machines due to potential competition.
THe FSB specs from IBM I think you are reffering to, are from last October (900 Mhz). Going from 900 Mhz to 1 Ghz seems reasonable to me, esp. considering it's IBM that we are talking about (and not MOT).
When I was in high school, I had an Aniga 2000, and was into demo programming. I had to learn the hard way using assembly, and it took me an eternity until I had the first moving pixels on my screen, but in the end it was worth it. Using assemly tought me to be patient and also to be persistent. I think it also weeds out the people who are not really interested in learning hot to program. I had however, a lot of friends who helped me in the learning process, which was essantial in achieveing anything using assembly. WHen I moved to the Mac, I used Think Pascal for a while.
afterall, Microsoft has a search functoin that I can use to look for MP3 on the network ??
I wonder how successfull that lawsuit would be. My guess is that the RIAA would get their asses handed to them on a plate.

How original to copy Apple's iTunes store. If the quality of Real's software is an indicator, the quality will be horrible. Also, monthly subscription services are a thing of the past.
Real, get real !!

Isn't posting it on the internet the same as retransmitting or disseminating? NOT if it's /.
The last CD I bought was the first CD that wouldn't work with my PC's drive. That was a couple of years ago. You bought the Celine Dion CD ???
