    Being Signed doesn't mean you'll make money. But making a product that people have orgasms over (OSX) makes a bunch of money.

    How many bands do you think are signed to Dreamworks? Or Sony? A bunch of thousands. How many DON'T suck? Like 2.

    No, because if you destroy the information the proper law enforcement people can't use said information to track down and "deal with" the terrorists.

    You've got a point. Bush got the majority of the votes. Unfortunatly, not everyone voted. So he got 51% of (max) 60% of the population who are registered to vote, and remember: Not all registered voters did vote. So 51% of 60% of 295 million. About 90 million people. Is that the majority?

    What's the target market? The same kind of people who think XxX2 kicks ass? The people who pay to see 2Fast 2Furious? Or do you mean people with disposable incomes? Here's a tip: Not everyone in the USA is "artistic" and 95% of us aren't going to be paying that close attention to an advertisement anyway. "Oh look, an old guy. *picks up cell phone*"

    You can't be "artistic" when you're selling things to a culture based around ADD.

    So "There's a guy. He has a cart. He ate a banana." makes people interested in whatever you say after it?

  20. Re:Just what we need on Nintendo Launches Wi-Fi Campaign for DS · · Score: 1

    Ever been to a Regal Cinema? They have something called "The 20" which is commercials for TV shows and COMMERCIALS BETWEEN THEM. 20 minutes of commercials. After that, we get the "CONSUME SNAX" 5 minutes of crappy animation with xTREME snacks jumping at you from the screen. 15 minutes or more of previews. So that's 40 minutes. Plus product placement in the movies...

  21. My opinion? on Nintendo Launches Wi-Fi Campaign for DS · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Commercials aren't telling us what they're selling any more. If I'm going to be a good little consumer, I have to know what I'm supposed to drop my desposible income on. Bananas? Old guys with carts?

    It reminds me of the movie "Alone in the Dark" if you've seen it, you may understand why:

    Alone in the Dark opens with a long text crawl explaining the movie (because Uwe Boll is an idiot, but that's not the point). They added it because nobody in the test audiences knew what the fuck the was happening in the movie.

    If you have to go back and say "Oh, this is what's going on" or "This is what we're selling" you should probably re-think what you're doing.

    Funny, Cantenna.com says:

    Is it legal to use your Cantenna?

    Yes, our Cantennas and Pigtails have been tested and comply with part 15 of the FCC rules. Make sure other wireless devices that you use also comply. Compliance with FCC regulations is your responsibility. Check with your Internet Service Providers to find out if they permit sharing of their Internet connections.

    I'm sorry, that's like saying "Irish don't commit suicide. There are suicides in Boston. Irish are killing themselves."

    Utah isn't 100% mormon. Not saying he's right and you're wrong, just saying how you're saying it is wrong.
