so this guy is sueing because he wants music off of ITunes store but not use the Ipod... thats like sueing BMW because they have BMW only rims and you can't get them otherwise. You don't need the itunes/ipod just like you don't need a BMW/BMWrims, you can get music in other places.
Not to say that artists don't deserve money for their work, but again they are doing it the wrong way.
For one, you can't stop it by going after people that don't have enough money to pay for cds. CDs printing costs are in like the cents (30-70 cents) to make the CD ready for packaging.
They charged 15 dollars for most. Only give the artist maybe 70cents-1 dollar for each record sold. If they ultimately actually lowered the price to a more convient number maybe people will by them.
Or even maybe have them actually good music to purchase. Going after college students who have enough to worry about is a horrible way to get support. Its a negative campaign that'll end up hurting them.
Macs are hot. Hands down, they are designed for multimedia power and design. All of those cases you should didn't have the style of a mac. Macs are hot.
This is a great move by Mozilla. Here are a few reasons..
1. A good majority of people only know of Internet Explorer. They find it easy to use, and don't really have any problems with it.
2. What most of the people don't know is that there are major problems with security, and given that a lot of people do use it for bills online, shopping, etc.
3. The current stream of IE issues have made people more aware that they need to switch something more secure, but they really don't know what to switch to.
4. Wahla! They have Firefox, a credible, easy to use, and most importantly secure web browser that is starting up the browser wars all over again.
With the ad, Firefox is going to get much more needed publicity and help changing a lot of things in HTML and the browser wars.
To declare war is a nice a dandy thing, but winning the war something the US doesn't seem to quite understand.
They declared a war on drugs- and by doing that they have one of the worst policies in the world by sending people who "get" high to jail. Good send those people to jail because that helps them, and everyone else.
They declared a war on terror- so far we have killed countless civilians in other countries, we have lost many soldiers to the war, and also in the entire process we have lost a lot of privacy rights to that great Patriot Act. Again, our people goto jail for stuff they didn't do.
Now, the war on people who can't afford software or movies in theaters- Anyone wonder why they would do this? They raise the price of CDs, so we start to download the music. They raise the prices of going to see a movie, and we start to download the movies. Software is incredibly expensive for some garbage and we start to download that. Well guess what. The Government is going to now arrest more civilians for crap.
Instead of reforming drug policy, instead of increasing intelligence in the government for counter-terrorism, instead of support these huge monoplies, we are subjected to jail time, huge fines, and lost of fines.
A good analogy would be if the government were to raid a company that is stealing millions of dollars, and to arrest the people in the mail room for the entire company. Thats what the Government is currently doing. Its quite sad, but this is the country we are living in.
In theory and from what I have read on the article, it will be a great device for security. But I don't think people will really realize how annoying this feature will become.
If it gets damaged, no more using computer.
If you get a nice little scare on the finger you choose to scan, no more using comptuer (unless of course you add more than one finger, but still).
I guess this is one of those things that the government should use, I don't know how easy or useful it would be used for a personal use computer.
I agree. MS believes that making the email look pretty and having useless things everywhere is the way to do it. Well if you want pure power and a simpler look go with GMail. Gmail is one of the best email services I have used. I don't even use my POP account anymore because GMail is even better than outlook on many levels.
