So I think it's now time to get rid of the CRTC. As a consumer, they haven't done much for me in the past 10 years. My cell phone bill is outrageous, my cable bill is monstruous and my phone bill is just plain astronomical.
The Canadian content rules are outmoded: let's face it Justin Bieber and Michael Buble outsell a lot of Americans. And a few years back, you had Shania Twain, Alanis Morisette and Celine doing the same thing. Canadians are doing just fine.
So, can all Canadian radio stations please stop playing the same old Bryan Adams songs please!!
Another good example of the Streisand Effect at work here. This will bring even more interest to this issue. Well done Mayor Perez!

I've got the WD MyBook WE 2 TB drive a few weeks ago. I haven't installed any of the MioNet software on my computer because I heard complaints about it. I've got it set up in RAID 1 mode (mode 5 needs a lot more drives). Performance is good so far. Powere consumption is around 20W, as opposed to a desktop PC at around 150W. Since it's running OpenLinux, I was able to add SSH and do more configuration of the SMB server this way. The linux partition is 2 GB; the Arm processor is somewhat underpowered for most other applications.

It's time to kill this CRTC body and spend the taxpayer's money on real issues.
