Let us say that the goverenment told you that in 1 year you would have to switch off your 802.11b access point because they need the frequency for something else and from now on you can not use the device without buying a $200 adapter!
An intellegent entrepreneur would see this as an opportunity to create the same hardware but for cheaper.
They would have no reason to buy them if they weren't innovating.
The fact that so many buyouts happen is proof alone that there is still plenty of innovation.
Saying I am a dumbass is a fallacy of logic.

He's not resisting. He obviously gave up and settled. Doesn't that kinda make him a coward?
They're not trying to control what you can and cannot download. That would be impossible. They just don't want people to distribute their copyrighten material. They're not trying to create some radically new laws. No, they're just enforcing old ones.
How much effort does it really take to rip a dvd and spread it over the internet? Next to nil. A quick trip to http://www.doom9.org/ reveals that there are millions of different rip packs and tools designed to rip dvds making it almost effortless to rip a dvd.
"... work, money and time I and the rest of the supporters of LokiTorrent and other p2p sites have put into their projects."
They may have spent money, and time, but they're only ripping off other people's work. Running a website like that probably only takes a fraction of the work time and money that creating any of the actual content (which they shamelessly ripped off) would take to create.
Get over yourself.
I can't remember for certain, but when I saw the story on the news, I believe they said they had plans to release pictures of the face, should the edited pictures not turn up anything.

It says in the book with the radios scripts that it is only a rumour. Infact a rumour he started.

I'm proud of you.

...just want to find out what all the good porn sites are?
Before I could DDos him they DDosed me back :(
was wrong with This?
The Changelog is actually more interesting.
I bet Gamestop only ordered enough games to cover the preorders. That's all they really care about. They don't give a damn about anyone else.
The only way to end their monopoly is to create some new content of your own. Nobody is stopping you.

I'm not trying to downplay it either, but humans have a natural curiosity to know the unknown.

So anyone who doesn't play those 5 games isn't a gamer? I guess RTS isn't a real genre :(
