who ever believed in all those CNN lying and scams about china also forgot one thing, with patriot act in USA, FBI can do all those surveillance and they dont need to notify anybody!
there's a game called "republic" or something that's about old soviet union or what ever. even in c&c generals, you can see plenty stupid politics in it, which portraits china in the way CNN lying about it.
well, it's really a "new" tech, ppl have been using APE and other no-loss format for years!!!!! which does the same thing, or better, at least it's free and you are not limited to apple's iTune only.

The War Of The Word

"Word and Excel (which until then had been called Multiplan on DOS, and "Excel" only on the Mac) had been rewritten from scratch as all-out Windows applications. And people liked them. Word 1.0/1.1/1.2 actually won some reviews against DOS WordPerfect, especially in things like ease of use and WYSIWYG editing. The Word team knew they had something, and put a laser focus on WordPerfect customers, asking them what they hated about WordPerfect, and making it a product goal for Word 2.0 and later to deliver features that made the most annoying things in WP trivial in Word.
Other moves were tactical. The Word planning team discovered that the WordPerfect sales force was going around to customers and showing Word opening a complex WordPerfect file (printer.tst) to show how bad the conversion was, and therefore how pointless it would be to try to switch to Word. So the Word team organized a special dev team that focused entirely on WordPerfect document import, "reverse-engineering" the WordPerfect file format (documentation for which was jealously guarded, as was the norm back then). Their goal was to make any WordPerfect doc open flawlessly in Word, but in particular their goal was to have no errors at all on printer.tst. Later the Word sales force used that same file when talking to customers as proof that Word 6.0 could open WordPerfect files flawlessly. "
read this one, it takes them so long to make it able to import wordperfect?
it's amazing that they didnot make any linking reference which is similar to link "miserable failure" to GWB, they launched the miserable lawsuite against google, which does nothing wrong but used a generic algorithm for web search, and in fact, AXA has relationship with its competitor. people might be searching internet using AXA to find its competitors any way.
people have been calling to stop that stupid feature, guess I'd rather have a free tivo without that. the only problemis that some DVR comes with satellite decoder built in, cna they be used as a generic tivo?
one day or later they might do that to any country on earth, without any pre-notification, anybody really feels so great about THAT day? that's developed by our tax dollar?
6" stupid stuff with a price higher than a very decent pocketpc, with $500 you can get toshiba VGA resolution pocketpc, SONY is just STUPID STUPID STUPID, that's why they are losing money.
keep the work, sony, PSX is no longer manufactured since people dont buy them, now just start this reader and see how long it takes to stop this one!
when I saw the CD overprice settlement, I joined, since it's just so easy to do, they didnot estimate any real cash back for individuals, but guess what, I got my $11.xx check a while ago. those guys really should file their claim.
consider this, so many PhD graduates in CS are looking for a job, many didnot find any and end up being a programmer.
and SO MANY Master in CS and related areas are under paid.
so how much you are expecting?
the indian outsourcing workers we know SUCK!
yeah, they charge less PER HOUR, but they charge more hours for their lousy code.
the russians ones are excellent, their english is not though
but I dont think every job can be outsourced.
why cant they just stick to the downloadable version so that people burn the stuff themselves? RARE stuff? they can be ordered online and deliver to you?

who ever over pays on iTunes.com to get their "eletronic only on iPod" copy of music, just knowning too little about this world, period.
so we can put away the against M$ thing and check out the nice code first. :D
there's been suppression for years and years. I wonder who hired this company and if there's any corruption involved which wasted our tax!

yeah, wifi only for very limited area, if you can get wifi access, better listen to real radio any way.

I think they should have used TS techonology and A/D conversion to make high resolution stuff, in REALTIME.
i think BBc complained about chinese government blocking some IPs for some websites?
who is stupid enough to buy those AAC files in the first place? well, who's stupid enough to buy an apple?
the sick japs must be trying to find some techonology and steal them!

it's still only for geeks. but on the other hand, it's probably good enough for business usage, as I remember google is using linux a lot.
yeah, just as stupid as they can be and there's absolutely no other way to spend the research funding they got.
this sounds like the stuff I read from magazine in primary school, nothing new and nothing interesting, for me now.
as it's invented by jpns, guess they use it mostly for what you described.
isnt it like the sex "orietation" or preference stuff?
