That's a hell of a leap you take there: DRM on media leads to DRM on the entire web.
That could have been done 5 years ago with Flash, but wasn't. Why would it be now? Does the fact that Flash is embedded in Chrome mean everything, or even just Google, is going to be DRMed? No.

I had to lol at "superstitiously".
Sorry, but the market is very limited. Probably too limited.
My wife, driving around town doing household errands, couldn't use this.
Also betting that Anonymous Stupid doesn't have a real winter where they live.
I don't know why I need to keep repeating this.
Can you please explain to me why you need my physical address to sell me an app?
Mine would too.
However, most commutes in the US wouldn't. So again, WTF is the point?
Didn't know that.
Thanks.

I didn't believe your numbers until I looked them up.
16 miles on a charge? WTF is the point?!?!

Well, Exxon is in the top ten here:

But can anyone explain why the US Chamber of Commerce is the top money giving lobbyist, by 3x?
Free will caused you to write that post.
God frowned upon it.
That was kind of my point. Only arrogant nerds think their opinion matters.
100 M iPads in 2.5 years shows that it doesn't.
If only other companies would copy Apple with this:
http://www.apple.com/recycling/
where you can return just about any device they've made in the last 10 years. For credit, if it's worth something.
Including other manufacturer's computers.
The tech nerds who posted above that they won't buy products that aren't repairable.
Can you actually name one? You know, in the wild, on the App store?
If not, you're just a whiny little bitch.
Number of malware that came through the App Store - ie non-jailbroken phones - One.
Charlie Fisher's proof of concept. Which wasn't actual malware.
Really? Where can you get official updates in China? At all, much less in a timely manner.
Can you get google play in China? No, so what are the millions of Android users supposed to do?
You know, when they get something like this:
http://www.computerweekly.com/news/2240159261/New-Android-virus-hits-100K-devices-in-China
Good point.
But that wasn't actually a malware virus. It was a proof of concept.
Unlike the hundreds of in-the-wild viruses on Android.
Like radio traffic.
So let us know when all the Android devices being sold in China running gingerbread can be updated.
Or any trusted source in China to install from.
And please point out one malware virus on iOS.
Yeah, because the whole point of netflix, hulu and youtube isn't videos. Or something.
What exactly are you arguing about?
In real life, it's pick one.
And yet the following websites do just that:
netflix
hulu
youtube
every newspaper using brightcove

Take off the tinfoil hat.
Because there's not a maps app on it?
