I am waiting for the day, Apple starts distributing movies.
They could have 2 options
pay-per-view ---> $0.99 == avg cost of DVD via netflix subscription
buy the movie ---> $9.99 avg cost of dvd = $15 minus dvd buiding costs, cover costs, format costs....
will you pay that much for the movies ?

The best thing he showed was a artificial intelligent camera, tough describe it.
Ok your cell phone screen is small, so you just put the cell phone under that camera, and the camera projects the screen on, say a wall....and that projection is interactive and alive, you can touch the projection on the wall, and move around the stuff in the camera....
then he took a business card and threw it under the camera...the that too got projected....
then he dragged the projection of card on the wall and dropped it on the projection of the cell phone screen, and whoa, cell phone gets the contact information of the card !!!
DVD Jon and two other programmers have released software they call "PyMusique", that allows people to connect to Apple's iTunes music store and purchase songs without any copyright protection. PyMusique is allegedly being described by its developers as "the fair interface to the ITunes Music Store". This software lets users download songs from Apple iTunes without Digital Rights Management (DRM). The software prevents the DRM from being applied, allowing the user to copy, share and use the downloaded song like an MP3 file.
It was always too good to last. Apple has stamped on an attempt to make it possible to purchase songs from the company's iTunes Music Store without having DRM restrictions added to the downloads. In a statement, the Mac maker announced last night that it was henceforth requiring all ITMS customers to upgrade to version 4.7 of Apple's iTunes jukebox software. iTunes 4.7 was released late last year, and is already notable for nobbling DRM-stripping utility Hymn.
A group of underground programmers has posted code online they say will reopen a back door in Apple Computer's iTunes store, allowing Linux computer users to purchase music free of copy protection. The release comes just a day after Apple blocked a previous version of the program, called PyMusique, in part by requiring all iTunes customers to use the latest version of Apple's software.
Google has confirmed it to be a bug. But was this a deliberate bug to make google more valuable for their IPO ?
