  1. Re:So... on Improve Your iPod with Rockbox · · Score: 0

    There is an easy way to get around the gapless issue. In iTunes, simply highlight all the songs from the same album, then right-click. The contextual menu has a command to unify the files. I have used this on all my continuous discs, and it works very well on my wife's Shuffle, my friend's 30GB 5G and, surprisingly enough, my PSP. By the way, I use AAC on my PSP and ripped my whole CD collection to it using iTunes. Reason: Better sound and smaller file sizes compared to MP3.

    I wonder why so many people don't seem to realize that MGM owns James bond, and they'd have a lot to say about the game being re-released.

    If you were smart, you wouldn't post fanboy fantasy like the crap above.

    Funny, that was what reading your post made me think. Hmmmm...

    Thankfully no laws got passed allowing the government to interfere with churches, but it was brought to committee. The main punishment in the proposed bill was to revoke the tax exemption of any church that refused.

    How's your wife and my kid?

    You can put the whole Internet on the 360? Has Al Gore been notified? Maybe the system IS as powerful as MS would have us believe!

    Actually, it was a clone of Taiko Drum Master. Nice try.

    It is undergoing restoration and is expected to be one of this year's Disney Treaures releases.

    With the added bonus that it sucks! (And I like most Sony stuff.)

  15. Re:Canada on ISP Fined $5000 For Hate Content · · Score: 0

    As a fellow Canadian, I must ask: What the hell made you think we have a right to free speech in this country? Remember the Chinese-born captain of the Toronto Police Department who was suspended for saying that most of the crime in chinatown was perpetrated by Asian gangs?

    No, we got that. CRTC - "Boobs are okay, $10 million U.S. commercials will destroy our workers' paradise!"

  17. Re:Rights... on ISP Fined $5000 For Hate Content · · Score: 0

    Fsirly incorrect there. All it takes is for somebody to file a comlaint to the commission about what you said. Then it's off to the tribunal to argue your beliefs aren't hate (good luck there), then it's fines, and/or jail time. There are a lot of stories, especially in Ontario, of the Human Rights Commission punishing people for things like choosing to turn down a customer who wants to print flyers due to the printer disagreeing with their beliefs. In one case a printer turned down a job from a gay-rights group because he disagreed with them, then they complained to the commission and the printer was ordered, under threat of fines and jail time, to print their materials at his own expense. I find that to be a pretty chilling incident, regardless of one's beliefs, to happen in a democracy.

    We have Manitoba and Newfoundland. I'd rather have the prisons.

    Frighteningly enough, no. The previous government was even looking for ways to punish churches that refused to perform gay weddings. Welcome to Canada, where there's no discrimintation, aside from govermentally-approved oppression.

  22. Re:Just like secondhand CDs, secondhand books... on Secondhand Games Stifle Innovation? · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Since the retail price for Xbox 360 games is $60 U.S., I would say you nailed it right there!

  23. Re:My problem with DRM... on GPL 3 to Take Hard Line on DRM · · Score: 1

    You nullify the point you were trying to make with your closing statement. An effective argument does not contradict itself. This is why so many anti-DRM types come off as reactionary, there is ALWAYS a way around the protection for thse inclined to find and use it, so DRM is NOT A BIG DEAL.

    Actually, the last PS1 game released came out in 2004. Ten years after the Japanese launch.
