2- the achievements of real people are sometimes controversial. Who could say with certainty that Cooley and Tukey invented the FFT, while it was used by Gauss in his astronomy work to speed up his calculation, but thought it unimportant enough to report compared to his number theory work? That itself may be controversial. Science is littered with misappropriated credit. For instance George Dantzig did not invent the first solution the the LP problem. Fourier knew about it ; people in the Soviet Union were using it before WWII. Hence writing about real people, particularly scientists, is hard.
This also applies to fictional people. Did Han shoot Greedo in cold blood or was it self defense?;)
I bought an iPod because it was the only Flash player I could find which had 4GB of storage. All the competitors had max 1GB. I realize this has changed now, so if I was buying an mp3 player today I would probably go for a less expensive brand.
For file transfer, I use winamp. I already have all my mp3 files organized in winamp, so it is much easier to transfer them from there than looking around in lots of different folders. I haven't tried the iTunes software, so I can't comment on that.
DNA is not Open Source. Scientists have been working for decades to reverse engineer it. But will they make it before they are sued for violation of the DMCA?
The ability to deny the existence of a movie is insignifcant next to the profitability of making all the fans buy the trilogy again for the fifth time.

In other words, yes
Agreed. However, there is a fix if changing client is not an option. The lookout-plugin makes searching in outlook not only usable, but fast too. Even on a multiple-GB inbox. Sadly Microsoft bought it and shut it down, but the old versions still works: http://www.vinodlive.com/2008/01/23/lookout-microsoft-outlook-search-tool-still-works/
A pronounceable name

It's a space station!
A single sheet of paper is two-dimensional. Once you stack a bunch of sheets on top of each other you add a third dimension, so yes :)
The Grail can be found in unexpected places. This is the ad Google served me at the top of this article:

There is no need to use iTunes just because you have an iPod, so I don't see that as an argument for switching to Zune.
I don't know what's most disturbing: that you call your Macbook your girlfriend, or that you kiss it...
