you are a total SAP, you actually believe that the record companies provide ANY sort of service to the industry ?? Stop swallowing Hillary's and Jack V's BULLSHIT and think for your self. You are right stop trying to justify your stupidity, no one else is going to buy it. If it makes you feel better, you can think I am stupid, your opinion hurts me in no way. As to debatin,g you provided NOTHING in the way of constructive debate just a lot of name calling. I can see why you hide behind an AC tag. When you find ANY SORT of entry into the music system THEN SPEAK OUT YOUR ASS, because that seems to be your strong suit. Next time pick a topic you KNOW SOMTHING about because it is obvious you no NOTHING about the music industry.
yea and the Chinese government runs over anyone who protests with a tank. great comparison. Lets not confuse quantity of life with quality of life. Note that was not meant as an insult to Chinese people. Asscroft is going to go down in history as one of the GREAT FACISTS, and Dubya will be remembered as the president who lost freedom in the US. Great legacy
I'm not sure what point you are speaking of beyond the one on your head....
I replied to your statement that the vast amount of profit derived from the record industry is why quality music was avaible, with a comment that YOU'RE a COMPLETE KNEE-BITER. Quality music comes from the SONG WRITERs and MUSICIANs, who RECEIVE a PITTANCE of that, so by your analogy GOOD music is available because FAT PIGLIKE RECORD EXEC's make HUGE SALARIES ?? Crawl back in your AC hole and wait for another day to show off your ignorance.
So the record companies ARE giving more than 10% to the artist ? what part of what I said is WRONG ? How many rockstars do you know...
" I know of several band(s)" then you list ONE
How about the 1000's of bands that LIVE HIGH on the hog on advances and loans from the Record companies ONYL to go deeply into debt when they are discarded in 6 months. Talk about what you know MORON, and I hope for your sake that this isn't what you claim to know.
If the author/songwriter got some of that vast $$'s I might buy it, but NO WAY. The author/songwriter is doing for love of the craft, and the publisher/record company is raking in HUGE amounts of cash and giving the originator CRUMBS...
a much easier technically feasible solution actually entended to solve the problem is available. Just iplement IPSEC. As to your phone tap analogy it does NOT WORK....The phone conpanies REQUIRE PAPERWORK before they let FBI agents into or onto the monitoring equipment installed at the TELCO's location. If such assurance could be made about access to this equipment I might buy it, but the FBI is the one that will be holding this equipment and somehow the FBI's "promise" that they won't look unless they check with the court first doesn't hold much weight.
the simple threat of a bomb or assassination of a public official is a crime, and it matters not whether you think you were serious or not, if they do you ARE GUILTY and deserve punishment.
I have to agree with everything ELSE you've said though...I regularly encrypt my email and I use an Echelon Friendly signature, which is DIFFERENT from fake threats but seeks the same end.
and tapping the net will help stop snail mail virus contamination how ??
Win this thing ?? the War on Terrorism is as futile as the War on Drugs. 50 Billion later and things are THE SAME, only the DEA and the drug problem have gotten larger.
Lets attack the situation in a rational manner, what drives a normal human to sacrifice his or her life in a destructive manner, hate or love ??? There must be a HUGE volume of hate out there. Why ?!
We as American need to ensure that we know what our 'Illustrious' government is doing in our names, I think many people would be sickened by the things the US government has done in the name of FREEDOM. That said, GOD DAMN the individuals responsible for the WTC bombing.
I am in Nor. Calif and there are several towns like that here. Go in public, assume you are being watched ALL THE TIME. You might be closer to the truth than you like...
He is not doing this to make a point he is doing this to AVOID being sued. Do you think BSD will be exempt from the same LAW ??? Stop smoking crack and wake up....This legislation affects all software...even BSD
If you have datacenter edition you have an enterprise contract, the person who submitted this has very little clue. We run MANY copy of DC, COMPAQ and M$ are our vendors and they have 2 hr response time on ALL critical ENTERPRISE level services. You DON'T us DC server unless you have a contract, YOU CAN'T even install the product without special codes. Nice editorial work/.
Just what I expect from an enquirer like source that you've become over the last few months. Will you guys still be alive when Andover goes under very soon ? Will you get control of/. back or will it be sold off as assets ?
agreed...M$ is like the pinnacle of a Mercantile society. Buy our product or we will put you in jail, LIKE our product or you are a deviant. Complain about it and you MUST be a traitor.
I am sorry but when I apply a package that has been certified by SUN for SOLARIS, I've never actually had it break my machine. Now I have had other 3rd party programs have problems, for example using a secure email or secure ftp on Solaris that is NOT SUN provided, will encounter some permision problems following major system patching, but at least the core OS always works.
Apply a M$ service pack and sit BACK AND PRAY, then re-apply all the bloody hotfixes that were invalidate by the SP...what a pathetic joke.
that are in use all over the place now. There are so many small advances that can be traced directly back to NASA. Why don't YOU try some research instead of copping out and masking everyone else to think for you.
someone needs to make some real money from space exploration to keep it viable. Produce giant tomatoes, or perfectly round ball bearings, or somthing with a viable financial future to boost NASA:)
this is Japan, where space is at the MOST premium in the world. A dog needs space, even a cat needs some space, as much as this thing gives me the creeps, I can see the motivation for the manufacturers in that market.
instead of a litter box. Granted I had a lot of help getting her to do it but it is great now.
If only I could teach her to flush, then she would be better than my room-mate.
my library. The title, author and publisher is on the bar code, I scan and file, so much better than typing in the 6000 or so books I've collected over the last 20 years. An online index makes it easier to use all around.
terms incorrectly. They seem to think that someone downloading a song from me is uploading, and that I download only from others...strange but that is why you see the mis-use so many times.
I live in Calif and I can get an 768 SDSL line for 150 a month. A T1 runs about 700$ + local loop chrges which PAC-BELL wants around 300 a month. I wish I lived in an area with some competition but PAC-BELL owns the whole ball of wax down here:(
But the US in the form of the CIA have been stirring up shit for years. Our oil industry is hand in hand with BP. The bottom line is western financial interests have put themselves ABOVE the the interests of the people who live in the region. I am proud to be an American, but ashamed of MANY of the things the government does in our name.
It is MUCH easier to find qualified UNIX support than it is M$ support. Half the MCSE's out there crammed the night before and haven't a clue what they are actually doing. Software support is MUCH better for UNIX as well. I've never had Sun tell me that the solution to my server problem was to re-install my OS either. While WIN2K is a step in the right direction, I still gotta believe in the long run UNIX hardware, software and support is cheaper and more available.

and making one into a computer game has been tried and flopped. The market for gamers who want that degree of realism seems to be slim.
