If I am going to pay 99 cents a track, the product I buy needs to be as equivalent as possible to what you get when you buy a physical product from the music store
You fool! They're just going to raise the price of CDs now so the online track is scaled accordingly:(
Question: If the liscencee pisses off the record company enough (vocal critic, successful lawsuits), can they void the liscences for any 'ol reason? Would be interesting if they attempted to tell large groups (political parties) they they were suddenly unlawfully in possession of copyrighted material and must immediately destroy it.
I thought Hindus were supposed to be an enlightened and peaceful relgion. Nope, looks like they have just as many voodoo priests over there too, mixing potions in caves and condemning "bad content" on behalf of "corrupted youth".
True, up until the point where they get in with the State
State says: "We won't prosecute you for technically transmissing pirated movies, illegal pornography, and bomb recipies, because we realize the internet is a good thing. If someone finds these things, just get rid of them best you can."
Now the government is involved in the relationship, and allowing ISPs to restrict speech (by refusing to carry it) is essentially government-approved censorship. That is No.
You mean like the equivalent of "tabbed" desktops? One for my video encoding folders and related apps, one for the video game I'm playing and its forums/cheat sites, one for my music directory and winamp? That does sound kind of cool.
I usually meticulously position windows every login (because windows never remember regardless of the settings you choose) to have these all set up at the proper viewing, but having to fiddle with a 2-line deep taskbar to bring up the right ones for the task I want to do at the moment can be frustrating,

You say "prevent this from occuring further" as if it's a bad thing. Bad to who?
-users of other consoles, who get to enjoy the game?
-the developers, who see their creation go to a wider audience?
-the distributor, who attains higher profit?
It is the highest degree of fanboy asshatism to want to deny other gamers something that "belongs" to "your system" because they committed the sin of not supporting it.
You may find that the 99 lives trick was just a bug that was fixed in a later version of the ROM
Wait. What?
After x successive stomps, you get 1 extra life each. It's just that no one anticipated by putting a koopa on the stairs that you would be able to get enough stomps to scroll over the 2-digit extra lives value. It was working exactly as intended, just not as the programmers intended.
Nintendo should have charged nothing extra and threw in 5-10 of the hard drive emulation games (nes and SNES). It wouldn't "cost" them much in lost sales, cost almost nothing in implementation, but come off to the market as "10 free games omg hax!!111"

"What? A console war? I know what to do... Let them eat cake!"
Of course, we all know what happened the last time someone was this blind.

There was something unexpected happening, so they shut down the engine and it plunged back into the atmosphere.
While that makes sense now, I would hope this protocol will change by the time they get around to human passengers.
Your analogy using a speeder is worthless
Pointing out the law may not apply to "some animals more equal than others" is not worthless. It breeds contempt for the law.
Fools, blah blah... blew it up, blah blah... damn you to all hell, blah blah
He surely wouldn't want for a Second.

Chisox, bosox, and now jsox?
Screw this, I'm watching hockey.
I was judged "not at fault" in the accident, the body armor was unlocked at my hideout for completing a Unique Stunt
Fixed.
Why don't these "researchers" understand the importance of self-selection?!?
Silly consumer. The purpose of studies is to support your hypothesis, not find facts!
At least this will let bears retake their proper spot at #1.

Lots of people have legitimate uses for handgrenades, but your landlord will probably not allow you to start setting them up in your apartment.
As to point 2, won't people just come up with new nasty tricks if some are blocked? Blacklisting won't work here.
These sites allow you to include script? What were they thinking?
Anybody home, McFly?
Barraty? Is that the legal concept of walking into court with a machinegun mounted on your arm and calls the judge "spikey-head?"

PlayStation 3 slumped to a disappointing 127,000 units
the various varieties of the Game Boy Advance sold a not unreasonable 136,000 units.
I've not seen such bravery.
Good Jimmy Wales, you look kinda cool now.
