Well, there is BitTorrent, perfectly legal for such stuff and FREE (nobody will come to their door and want $10k)...
IMHO there is no reason to complain... Also when big companies like that uses that stuff, it will open path for Java (embedded) and ActiveX bittorrent clients which works easily for average user.
I now download it using Shareaza (http://www.shreaza.com) and I am sure I don't even "touch" any of their hosts, bandwidth...
Why companies are so slow adopting excellent stuff which would save hundreds of thousands $$$ for them?
Well, reach the moderator who marked it "redundant" on irc.xchat.org , who loves to kiss opers asses, nicked Syberghost.
Guy uses Slashdot system to down moderate me..! Checks the posts by me and down mod me. Check his personal page, its all easy... http://slashdot.org/~syberghost , check his "foes"
Well, the problem is real funny since there is no way to blame MS for it...
That simple firewall has a simple API, to add Application Ports (e.g. RTSP protocol) and ask user to "grant" it...
Guess what? Realone player, Quicktime and dozens of p2p apps doesn't use that api.
So, enable all firewalls? You just see tens of millions of unable to share, unable to stream users. Oh they will fall back to TCP, or even http, imagine the performance/bandwidth costs rising.
I don't know which part is to blame MS over that issue, if anyone reading this over RealNetworks or Apple, I am asking them, "why don't you use that API instead of documenting RTSP ports etc which means NOTHING to avarage end user?"
Nah, on this case, I am not bitching about ms as usual, just check that page and what else they could do for developers of those COMMERCIAL apps as of giving information. http://www.microsoft.com/technet/tre eview/default. asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/winxppro/Plan/icf.asp
IMHO there are real lazy bastards on those companies and sometimes we blame Microsoft for nothing...
Well, I wonder why MS opens RPC (135) to outside World.
Yes yes, services use it, as Steve Gibson's sayin "impossible to close without firewall"...
Don't blame people not using firewall, they are mostly newbies , e.g. XP home users. Ask the real question: Why you open a port outside World by default OS install?
Everyone knew port 135 would be exploited in a real bad way before, that was just a matter of time.
If os is a client only, do not turn on rpc listening on port 135... Its THAT hard?
yes how informative (!) so why entire World doesn't get upgrade option?
I hate to pirate stuff but lt gives a reason. I could give them 19 dollars to upgrade... They give no option though.
I use G5 now and it has no noise
do I need to have Jaguar while I have 10.2.8 MacOS came with my G5?
I mean will I get enough perf with this? Or e.g. same disk/gfx performance?
Real clueless here for now. No shit...
What a shame? USA/CAN only?
Enough... I pirate it than...
(a G5 owner for 2 days only)
I got my RDRAM based P4 board and P4 cpu itself burned and buying a G5 64 bit Mac in 2 days.
If "mac" was just a cool looking x86 box (or even Itanium) having custom themed XP or something I wouldn't think it even.
So its end of discussion on x86 on macintosh...
Yes it continues to be a CHOICE. Thank god for that guy who left/got fired from Apple couldn't be suscessful on his Intel idea....
Ahem, I decided to get a firewall and keep this PC running 24/7, for sharing...
I'll run shareaza 24/7, just for those morons sued a 12 year old KID while they speak about pedophilia , I share all files...
There, RIAA lawyers reading Slashdot (of course they do), your answer, I am in Istanbul, BITE ME.
Gee, remember they are humans too... Imagine you code for mac since OS 7 times and one day Apple moves to entirely different Arch...
You can't expect exact same quality for sometime...

Slashdot can be abused that easily, wow.

Its not redundant, it was the first reply to that comment... Well, what else? Somebody loves to -1 me...
-1 this, you moron ass kisser...
Er, when will people see those "mega rich people" as Gods? /S/ will STOP I mean, damn I should click preview button :(
Er, when will people see those "mega rich people" as Gods?
All have an working e-mail, maybe oc-192 or E1, but real TCP/IP connections and have IE or something...
They aren't living on clouds like greek gods, lol...
So, Bill Gates DEFINATELY reads Slashdot IMHO.
With those EULAS and companies/users accepting them with or without reading they have nothing to get afraid from.
Even if windowsupdate breaks your computer, wmedia deletes all your mp3'es, you have no right to sue them...
In world of sheeps, they are the wolf, so I bet BillG smiled even after that question...
Internet connection firewall enabled by default?

Some say "its a test for public conception" by printing such news...
Remember Aussie "debit card" stuff? Who wanted it? And who owns The Sun?
Oh yes, its not a newspaper even.
They are in that panic man, believe or not.
Easy to ask, why no such xhtml support in IE for windows (I know mac one).
You just don't see why MS instantly joined to webstandards and why they need it...
Just one word? Nokia rejected their OS?
Well, I wonder why MS opens RPC (135) to outside World.

I wouldn't bitch about moderation as this was kinda expected based on Slashdot style, but this thing from irc.xchat.org #linux kinda forced me.
Heh heh. Got mod points. Ilgaz has made flamebait comments recently. Hilarity now ensuing.
http://slashdot.org/~syberghost spoke.
I always trusted to metamoderation system of slashdot but not all sure now.
Well, I leave him alone with his own lameness abusing Slashdot system... Feel free to off-topic this post.
Nokia is everything to make a standard suscessful :)
translation for flaming geeks:
they will check your IP if you are from USA or not, now let begin the IP forging comments.
(I really wonder how many Apple users on this article commenting, Apple users respect to rights of artists and their distrobution companies)
"Fuck Apple! Fuck RIAA! Fuck music!"
May I ask how your post got modded insightful too? Just because its Slashdot. Slogan speak is enough to get insightful.
I bet you aren't even a iMusic subscriber, this would make you more mad but I think of subscribing when they offer service to my country.
Come on who? This is slashdot. Anything speaks about copyright holders/artist rights is EVIL.
;-)
Also this post will travel to -1 eventually
If you seen the Deja.com , fscked by them, you wouldn't feel good for Google.
Let me say, if Dejanews.com was Version 5, Google turned it back to version 1 beta...
Also the loss of mail addresses. Was real hard to open a mail server like groups.google.com , anywways...
