I suppose that this guy would have made himself a glorious career in the Gestapo. In a a democracy however there is no room for totalitarian fascists like him. I wonder why a person like this can get to such a high position in the CIA?
Maybe this says something about the level of democracy in the US of A ( and the rest of the world for that matter)?
Music videos and cd's are meant to be promotional tools to get people to go to concerts.
The entire music business has spun totally out of control. First of all its not meant to be a business in the first place.
You are not supposed to get rich from playing music. You are supposed to be gratefull if you can get by by playing music.
If your sole purpose of being a musician is to get stinking rich, then quit and become an investment banker.
There is a reason why its called music: thats because you are playing and not working.
The folks complaining about Spotify should be happy that there is a mefium available which allows them to reach millions of people for free
Forcing Microsoft to deliver Windows without MediaPlayer is right out stupid. It will have absolutely zero impact on the IT market place and MS monopoly position.
A much more sensible sanction would have been for the EU government, and related boddies, to stop using MS software. THAT would have an impact.

Just tried to cancel my membership. The page doesn't work. Neither with firefox/linux nor with Windoze/Explorer. Pretty sad
Well - good to know. No Android for me!
