They clearly state this. but when I have a look into what is iTron I don't see anything actual?!? Maybe did I missed something. I'm realy sorry if that's the case, but then can you link to some hard-vaporware.proof(tm) material (actual uses of iTron I mean)?
Oh, and I got your point about 'initiative' vs 'implementation' of course. What I'm after is an implementation for them to use!
"TRON, ITRON, and ITRON do not refer to any specific product or products."
This is from the official TRON website. So now... how are they going to sell something based on nothing.
I too can build and sell the top-notch-most-powerfull stuff ever built.. and I won't be selling it cheap.. oh, of course this would only be theory-reselling.
I've seen nowhere in TFA that this techno is actually going to be used. Bu anyway, if it's gonna be.. maybe we should all beware of the Attach of the Killer Tomatoes which will seek revenge because the fridge just said they were out of date ^^
Sharing free music is good okay. But sharing pirated music is good too.
Let me explain how I buy music:
1/ Look on forums/online music stores,...
2/ Randomly choose artists whose music seems interresting
3/ Download the artist(s)' full discography
4/ Listen
5/ Then, if I like 1 song. I just keep it and delete te rest; if I like an Album, I go buy it.
Well, if I can't donwload music freely on the internet will I continue listening to music? Hmm... probably yes. The music I already have on CDs (lots of it) and will buy new CDs maybe one a year instead of one a week.
I *hope* I'm not the onl one to D/L music in order to choose whant I want tu buy... but hell... I *doubt* it. But anyway, too much protection can also have a vicious impact.
Essentially, with just one number, you have a system where the SSN is both the public and the private part of the ID
If I got your point, then let's all get a public SSN and a private Key... why not, but then anyway we all know how passwords are usually choosen, no?
I don't thing any computer-like method can be applied. Maybe someday will they use some retinian-fingerprints-DNA stuff instead of SSN? Gzz... too geek even for me!
Viewing the ad, or not viewing the ad.. that's the question!
If you think about the average internet user, well, he is the one who's gonna see the ads and click on then. Of course he's those ads main target! And maybe will he even buy something! Bingo...
This just to say that I 100% agree; if browsers integrate ad blocking policies, i'll sooner or later mean the end of annoying ads on the internet.
Annoying ads are the ones who pop and blink and make nasty sound and try to attract you via fake windows,... I personally choosed to block those. Be cause anyway I would never ever click on it. SO they are just bandwidth consuming-mind innervating things.
Immagine you've been driving in the country side... nice trees, little rabbits, trees,cows,... and that was just 3 or 4 years ago. Now when you go to the same place, the rabbit's been painted black with a Nike logo on it, the trees each have a hugly flashing sign on it showing a chainsaw,...
That's what hapenned to the internet. Became mostly just a junkyard.
So I think the problem is not ads in themselves, but the shape used to publish them. And anyway those who currently block ads wouldn't click on them.
"by the only real power left in the world, and that is the United States, when it suits our interest, and when we can get others to go along."
The only real power in the world, well, maybe are you right but you should have a look at what/where/who is Hitachi (HDD in the PB system are Hitachi ones).
And maybe you'll then see that the actual power nowodays is in Asia. Not anymore in North America or in Old Europe.

I don't know who modded this funny.. This is insightfull!
Hmm, and you're planning to translate the possible answers and misspellings in how many languages?
at least 3 truck bateries by your side.

Or you'll just be able to phone 2 minutes and listen to 1 mp3
"And are you trying to tell me, that all UNIX based systems are unsignifficant for us ??"
Well... UNIX based systems are great of course.
Try to sell me any piece of hardware and state "that'll work on UNIX", and I'm sure I could drop dead laughing.
Tell me { it's ok tu use with | it uses } Solaris, Linux, HP-UX,...

why do you buy the album?
:)
Well, let's say that if I love the music they "craft" they deserve some reward. The only way do do it is buying the album.
Furthermore, if I want them to make another album, they need money. And provided I like their music, I want them to make some more. That's the point

Some ad cleaning will surely be a good thing.
