I am pretty sure Bestbuy has at least SOME >55" TV on display. Better yet, they have multiple of them running at almost all times. Everyone weekend, you can go to Bestbuy or any big electronic stores, be it chain store or not, you will see some sort of live sports on TV. Unless every one of these stores has "agreements" in place with the NFL and all the other major sports, which I highly doubt, this is ridiculous to go after churches, who are non-profit. Maybe that's the problem there, NFL doesn't like non-profit because they are all greedy bastards. Yet they have no problem when other for-profit organizations violate their "rights".
Screw this, I am not going to watching the super bowl this year.
How the hell can a system be constantly sold out over a year after it was first released? Either Nintendo greatly under-estimated Wii's demand or they are doing it to piss people off. I had mine since last year, before Christmas, so it doesn't affect me but it just seems ridiculous to me. How long was Xbox 360 sold out for? I am pretty sure they had plenty of stock by the time PS3 and Wii came out.
Hong Kong runs its own legal system, which is way better than China's. Most of the judges are actually British judges, so unless the British justice system is messed up, Hong Kong's is fine seeing as Hong Kong's justice system is mainly based on British one.
Actually, I bet those people in India are much better in math than most North Americans.
Maybe it's a sign that they SHOULD outsource since these high school drop-outs can't handle the math.
I agree with this in a way. First of all, when I was in high school, (gr. 9 and 10 especially), I spent my time cracking whatever security they had on the computers because it annoys me not being able to do the simpliest thing. It was too restrictive and pissed me off, so a bunch of us just keep finding ways around it.
On the other hand, having absolutely no security is too dangerous. It can potentially bring the whole system down. I think a more simply way would be limit what sites they can visit or only visit sites that are authorizated. This way, you can easily elminate the flash games and any illegal sites.
They go after those who download a few songs and yet there are tons of people running around with gigabytes of songs. If you are going to sue, at least sue someone who downloads and uploads. Downloading doesn't hurt your business as much as uploading. If you cut off the upload, what's there to download?
But then, the RIAA are run by idiots, so can't expect too much from them. Can't wait til they screw themselves over with these lawsuits.
That will teach Sony and the other record company a lesson. If by buying a cd, I will get a rootkit, why don't I just download it? They are screwing themselves over.
Sony is a Japanese company, they release everything in Japan before anywhere else. The Sony showroom in Tokyo has all the newest things Sony comes up with and I am 100% sure this will be released in Japan first. If you want the newest Sony creation, get it in Japan and learn Japanese.
For those who doesn't know, a lot of people have been using Cool Streaming to watch some Asian sport channels using the same concept as BT. This might be new in that you can actually broadcast something, but in terms of watching TV using BT engine, that's not something totally new.

It really smells around here, especially in the summer months. -_-

RIAA is trying to screw over their own artists now too! Way to go!

They think she is actually capable of downloading music? -_-

They are paying the price for offering crappy services.
What's with the kids in that era? How can you like a potato over LEGO?!?! Lego is the ultimate toy, hands down.

That person obviously lack understanding of the market they are entering. I will just Bluetooth my mp3 over to my phone, thank you.

I saw it on the news like 2 months ago.
