This is legal in the US, but you have to pay license fees per song and per listener, unless you play stuff that's not covered by ASCAP or BMI or SoundExchange. There are also restrictions on what songs you can play, and when you can announce them. This goes for mirrors of on-the-ar broadcasts as well.
How are you going to run router software on a TC? You can't write it yourself (not trusted) and you can't buy it (too expensive for anyone but a corporate customer)
First, as far as I know, the French government's help to Ubi Soft is limited to allowing Ubi to buy back shares rather than explicit.
Second, I'm sure there are plenty more examples of corporate welfare by governments. It does strike me as peculiar that France is doing a lot to bail out a video game publisher when there are other, larger French companies that are owned in large chunks by foreigners. (STMicroelectronics, for example)
MMORPGs could adopt a chess ranking system for PVP play. If you don't spank the n00b hard enough (impossible when the rank differential is too big), you lose points!
I don't think Red Hat employs that many developers. They do have a few custom tools which are the selling points of that particular distribution (installation and configuration utilities)
I also don't think Red HAt even targets the desktop anymore. They're aiming for corporate server clients.

It's news because people forget and need to be reminded that goodwill shouldn't overpower good sense.
I'm not so sure. It will kill off hobbyist developers but it's obvious that there are plenty of people willing to program just for money.
Now, this might contribute to a downhill slope of software quality leading to the destruction of the entire computing industry, but i doubt it.
Because you can rip your own CDs to an iPod.

Oh, another driver developer, I see.
Windows-Pause brings up System Properties.
Logic is lost on this generation... I'm moving to Mars.
burnt schwag? that's their usual 'french roast'
I'm not arguing that, but that's not exactly rape-the-earth, is it?
I'm sure I dislike Starbucks just as much as you but as far as I remember all their coffee is shade-grown.

German law prohibits any foreign entity from gaining a controlling interest in Volkswagen.
Foreign airlines are prohibited from flying between US cities.
Japan makes bogus claims to turn away shipments of US vehicles.

There is a fan base dedicated to writing fan fiction about any possible combination of harry potter characters, gender unimportant.
Besides, I think the fact that we are sitting here at work arguing on slashdot says that maybe developers are overvalued. :)
