WHAT IS COPYRIGHT? Copyright is a form of protection provided by the laws of the United States (title 17, U.S. Code) to the authors of original works of authorship including literary, dramatic, musical, artistic, and certain other intellectual works. This protection is available to both published and unpublished works. Section 106 of the 1976 Copyright Act generally gives the owner of copyright the exclusive right to do and to authorize others to do the following: To reproduce the work in copies or phonorecords; To prepare derivative works based upon the work; To distribute copies or phonorecords of the work to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership, or by rental, lease, or lending; To perform the work publicly, in the case of literary, musical, dramatic, and choreographic works, pantomimes, and motion pictures and other audiovisual works; To display the copyrighted work publicly, in the case of literary, musical, dramatic, and choreographic works, pantomimes, and pictorial, graphic, or sculptural works, including the individual images of a motion picture or other audiovisual work; and In the case of sound recordings, to perform the work publicly by means of a digital audio transmission. In addition, certain authors of works of visual art have the rights of attribution and integrity as described in section 106A of the 1976 Copyright Act. For further information, request Circular 40,Copyright Registration for Works of the Visual Arts It is illegal for anyone to violate any of the rights provided by the copyright law to the owner of copyright. These rights, however, are not unlimited in scope. Sections 107 through 121 of the 1976 Copyright Act establish limitations on these rights. In some cases, these limitations are specified exemptions from copyright liability. One major limitation is the doctrine of "fair use," which is given a statutory basis in section 107 of the 1976 Copyright Act. In other instances, the limitation takes the form of a "compulsory license" under which certain limited uses of copyrighted works are permitted upon payment of specified royalties and compliance with statutory conditions. For further information about the limitations of any of these rights, consult the copyright law or write to the Copyright Office.
ok, the REAL question is, can it handle HOT pizza sauce/cheese, and HOT coffee???? Cause thats what REAL hackers eat. God knows theres tons of crumbs, and coffee stains on my keyboards. I can envision working from a hot tub now.... Does it come in a wireless version?? I could hook up the monitor to be a huge, theatre sized tv screen, and type with the wireless version, all from a hot tub... ahhhhh...

This version is nice... doesn't SSSSSutter, or stop playing after about an hour, or have the GUI trouble that the last one had. You have to change the ~/.mailcap file to bla/blah/realplay %u, instead of %s as before to get it to work.
Other than designing and implementing c++, and writing books and papers about the language, what do you use it for? i.e. what programs have you written with it? or What are those programs used for?
You said it yourself, record companies screw over artisits. Probably mostly true, unless, of course, the artist OWNES the record company.
Technology has eliminated the need for this middleman, the record company. Wrong!!! A record company does a hell of a lot more for the artist than what you think.
and about 80% of the money goes to the artist. Wrong again!!! What about the time it takes to record the damn thing? Or about paying the recording engineers, graphic artists, extra musicians, or even guitar techs that fix the broken guitar strings? There's alot more going on than you think. And what about the promotional videos? Did you take any of the extra expenses invloved with record/ CD production? The artists do NOT recieve 80% of the price you pay. I am sure that the record store where you buy it from makes about a 100% mark-up.
yes, but someone that is tone-deaf should not expect the piano to change to suit his/her needs for playibility. Every maestro, and every student of the piano, KNOWS that it takes many hours of practice and learning the instrument, unlike a casio that one can simply push a button and make canned music.
Well, the recording industry has been around for way longer than the software industry has, and have dealt with bootleggers for a greater amount of time. Were there software developers in the 1920's? Developers came up with crippleware to deal with that. Imagine a cd that you could only play for 30 days, or that you could only play parts of some of the songs? Copyright is sorta like the GPL in the fact that it is a license, in a way. Although the two are extremely different.
Some bands (and musicians) aren't touring type bands. They work in the studio. And how many bands have you seen that play as well live as they do in the studio? If the recording studio is out of date, so is the software industry. By my last check, I can record 24-bit digital music. Can your cd player play that? Can mp3 encode it? Granted, the gear isn't nearly the price it used to be, so it has naturally changed. Selling music is a business. Giving it away is, something else..
I disagree. There is no 'most important segment'. What about the people that aren't musicians that work with the band to make it all possible? How about the tour crew? Are they not as important as the band? And what about the dude at the cd pressing plant? Isn't he part of the picture also? How about that studio tech that has to sit there for hours, listening to god-awful music? and how about the bands agent that talks on the phone for hours setting up tours, and getting the record company to even listen to the cd in the first place? And how about the geek at the electonics place that has to fix the guitar that the lead singer tripped over? Does he deserve to be ripped off? Is he any less important than anybody? You forget that behind every band are probably hundreds of people that need to eat also, and do more work than the band, to bring you that music. Anytime you infringe on a music copyright, you are stealing not only from the record company, but everyone that is invloved with it, including the artists.
Of course I know, I am in the frickin' business. So you are saying that the record companies that shell out thousands of dollars to record, market, distribute the cd, do not deserve any money for their efforts to bring you music that can be played anywhere these days? What about the record companies that are owned by the artists? Do you even know how much work is put into making a cd to market? Do you know how expensive recording studios can run, per hour? SOMEONE has to pay for all that stuff. It's a frickin' business.
hmm can't steal music, eh? Hmmm little do you realize how much time, work, equipment is used to put out any music cd. Stealing is stealing, no matter what it is. I suppose you no longer pay for internet access, after all, it isn't really stealing, as stealing is only cars, bread, and money. You are the type that borrows a library book, and then never gives it back. Think about the artists you are screwing, that also get screwed by the record labels, distributers, etc.
What is really needed, as for as disposible phones go. Is to have one that is edible !! That way, if you get stranded, you can make a call for help, and then chow. It wouldn't go in the dump. Except that dogs would REALLY love eatting the phone then.
Going to the ftp site, it looks very similiar to the mandrake dist, having mdk in ALL the rpm files. Couldn't find the source files. Wouldn't that be a violation of the GPL?
There are more than just 2 streaming types. Try streaming mp3 (xmms for linux) realplayer works on linux also, windows media- hehe there is one for unix, but its an old, out of date one. Streaming mp3 is probably the best, unless you need some seriously low-fidelity.
No. no. no, you've got it all wrong. You need to smear the potatoes on the RAM. The RAM,man.and then sprinkle the barley on top. and make sure that the potatoes are firmly and securely in the slot.

Can they play mp3's when you pull a string on the back of the neck?
yes, but someone that is tone-deaf should not expect the piano to change to suit his/her needs for playibility. Every maestro, and every student of the piano, KNOWS that it takes many hours of practice and learning the instrument, unlike a casio that one can simply push a button and make canned music.
