Almost every product is rip off of something previous to it, usually because the consumer already knows how to operate product X so if product Y is like X than the consumer will not get confused.
"The Wall Street Journal carries a story today on the higher prices customers are starting to face from online music stores. Apple, for example, is charging $17 for N.E.R.D.'s new 12-track Fly or Die album, while Napster charges $14--both higher than the $13.50 Amazon is selling the physical CD for. All five major record labels are also reportedly discussing ways to raise the price of single downloads, from increasing the price anywhere from $1.25 to $2.50, to bundling hot singles with less desirable tracks or charging more for singles of tracks that have not yet been released in stores."
From what I've read Apple only gets 10 cents from each track sold and RIAA get 70 cents.
I have had the most problems with removing Hotbar. It tries to install every time Outlook is run. It pretends to uninstall from add/remove programs, but is back next time you try to load Outlook. I hate it! I want to sue the people who make that crap software.
one important thing to keep in mind is that there are some things I might want to know that I don't want to ask my librarian.
"Ma'am can you help me find a book on STDs?, thanks"
You are correct, most people don't have the skills needed to get accurate results. It drives me nuts trying to watch others use a search engine, the first mistake is they usually type www.yahoo.com in the address bar.
I would think it would take 5 mins just to find the phone number to the library, get some one to answer the phone and then explain the question, PLUS have them search for answer. This also would all depend on the library you call. Google is google no matter where you live, but not every library is staffed when the same people.
I have also been using that service (allofmp3.com) since the article. The download speeds have been good this week and they have a good selection of music including bluegrass (I like me some pickin').
you know its become a big thing when its a part of television shows. Just this weekend Malcom in the Middle did an episode where Hal (the father) competed against teenagers in Dance Dance Revolution competition (for free pizza tickets).

a tape recorder? You don't want a PDA or Laptop so I think you are limiting your options.

As long as your not a vegan (I'm not) which will not even drink milk. What a great way to live.
I wonder how bad it smells? I'm sure I'd put up with it for saving 5 grand a month though.
Poop is good, that is all.
Nerd? Oh yes because his party will be so lame that no one will show up so he will have a lot of beer left over.

Dumb de dumb dumb
"How will Apple respond?"

"allowing the recording of 7 shows at the same time"
Thats great but its hard enough to find one good show on tv, is there really a time that 7 good shows are on?
What's a career?

I don't think that an Excel clone will ever work in the business enviorment unless it can run all the addins like the ones for Essbase and Peoplesoft.

from inner space! Making things smaller is not better!
I prefer the benifits a whore can give to that of a computer.
