In all honesty, that's what I plan to do. I thought that Reloaded was such a piece of crap that there's no way I'm paying for another movie (which will probably be extremely similar).
Interactive music is something that has been underutilized, IMHO. I first noticed it in 1080 Snowboarding for N64 (in the halfpipe mode, the music changed whenever you were in the air), and it worked really well. Has it been used in many major games since then? It seems like everything I hear is prerecorded these days.
That would be true, if they weren't giving them away as package deals. I got OoT: Master Quest for free with my preorder of Wind Waker, you can't say the same for Disney rereleases.
True, the iTunes music store is better than some, but I don't want any restrictions on something that I pay for. I can go out and buy a CD that has zero copy protection so I can use it how I want. However, AAC files will not play on a variety of devices other than computers, and on top of that I'm limited by the DRM. Why would I buy Apple's music when I can buy a CD that I can use however I want?
P.S. Burning or converting the files to another format is not a valid solution, so nobody try to bring that up. Generation loss is not acceptable for me.

WMV9 video won't play on OSX, not in the official player, not in MPlayer, not in VLC. I haven't checked out the video, but I'm assuming it's WMV9.

Heh.

IIRC, it's either been shut down already or is being shut down extremely soon.
This is so awesome. Now I can have both N64 Zeldas on my Gamecube? I'm there, as long as I can buy it seperately..
(Maya Complete not being complete, of course).

If using Kazaa Lite on their network is illegal, I'm sure anybody using mlDonkey/giFT to connect to Kazaa could be in trouble, hypothetically.
Yeah, that's definitely number 1 on my list...
