So let's see here... he sets his "XM Radio VCR" to record an analog signal and digitize it for his listening pleasure sometime in the future, and it just so happens that it can separate out songs by title and all that stuff that gets sent digitally with XM. Heck sounds a lot like a VCR to me except the play guide doesn't come in a paper "TV Guide" form with numbers to punch into the device to tell it when to record.
So let's say I decided to start recording this same analog signal with, say, my good ol tape player. Would they be after me then? Probably not - because it's almost impossible to physically get it sent to 5 million other people rather quickly. Any time the RIAA notices that somehow "its" content could even possibly be sent from one person to another and they don't get a profit they're going to whine about it, and they sure are big whiners, with deep pockets too.
I almost want to go buy a XM radio and this software just becuase the RIAA thinks it's illegal.
Cool, but still not ideal

Looks bulky, heavy as at least a backpack, and probably hot, especially in the summer. Plus, it looks like just another way women can attract attention to their chest (not that I mind). Will they make 3X sizes?;)
"Daddy what's that?"
"Oh it's the Skoal Big Dipper! At one time back before space ads it was just called the big dipper though."
"Where's the Long John Silvers Pisces? That one's my favorite!"
If someone can put advertising garbage satellites in space I'll pay money for someone to develop a spaceship to go up there and shoot them down, or maybe just rearrange them, then shoot them down later.
Reminds me of "Cowboy Bebop" with all the space ads in that show.
Does the Hummer come with the plastic water bottle between the driver's seat and the console? You can keep the Hummer... I just want the water bottle...
I swear by KnoppMyth myself. It works straight "out of the box" with the PVR250, including the light grey remote (which should ship with all the latest versions of the PVR250). I guess there's a way to get the older black remote working also. For those interested visit the website and download the ISO (R4). Note that advanced setup didn't work for me, and there is 1 nasty bug with the station info download you need to fix (check the forum for more info).
Apparently the selling point of every new portable gaming system is its ability to play some version of Tomb Raider. Otherwise looks like they've already built most of the toys I'd build myself if I had time to do so....
I remember wayyyyy back in the day I'd encode CD audio to WAV's in realtime (1x) and store them on a 6GB hard drive (back before any real well-known audio compression was out there and 6GB was a large hard drive). Of coure I thought to myself wouldn't it be great be able to make smaller files then you could play these things over the network remotely? Then came RealAudio (back before it liked to hide spyware in its software - I think anyways) and I got hooked on that. Transitioning over to MP3 I remember encoding my first song on my Pentium 166 system (and waiting a few hours for it to complete). I can't remember the exact song but it had this horrible high-pitch whine in the background through the whole track. How depressing! Then I swore I'd stick with RealAudio forever. Of course that ended up being a lie. Oh well, a nice flashback to the good ol days.
If there's a constant ad ticker at the bottom of my screen I'll just cover it with something else that won't annoy the heck out of me. As for buying a PVR, why not just build your own (MythTV, Freevo, etc). It might cost a little more in time and money, but if you want a way around putting up with someone else's decision the best way is to do it yourself.
Yeah I thought it rolled over too, but then I think my stomach fell when I realized all it did was barely move. Will slashdot be covering play-by-play moves?
NASA should look to battle bots for inspiration. Some of those bots can roll over and still keep going. Hurray for garage hobbies!
What about other squatter websites that I'd like to have just to make into something useful that don't necessarily have anything to do with my name or whatever? Would the same thing apply? Should there be some sort of content audit on websites and if your site sucks you lose your "license" to own that domain? Then of course who gets to do this reviewing? Oh well the government will kick all us "Indian" Internet squatters off the vast plains of the net eventually anyways.

A little flash animation for those confused about ion drives: http://www.esa.int/export/esaSC/SEM3K81P4HD_index_ 0.html . Of course depends on mass, momentum, etc. too....

They should spend some of their earnings and get better webservers. Until then I wait to see the page.
