SONY COMPUTER ENTERTAINMENT AMERICA ANNOUNCES PSP LEADING MARKET SHARE OVER COMPETITORS
Reputable online journal IGN reports PSP is most popular handheld console, despite sales figures implying the opposite. Sony spokesperson explains this apparent conflict, saying "Japan seems to be experiencing a sampling bias, one corrected through the unchallanged accuracy of the IGN survey".
This is great. Advertisers pay for ads, I get to watch the show. Same model we've used all these years in television. This would be help make broadband look good for the telecoms, and gets the web to a place it could really replace television broadcasting. And if the interface would be as easy to use as a television, there would be no barriers for widespread use.
What I'd like to know is, for Secret of Mana to run properly on next-gen hardware, will I have to overclock my Wii? Nintendo's been known for "perfect emulation...right down to the slowdown."
Hey, I got modded flamebait... There goes my Karma. My wording was a bit harsh.
If Azureus is great, why would you switch to uTorrent so quickly? The only feature you'll be missing is cookie logging (which I suppose, is good for users no single IP address). Azureus is a feature-rich client. It's multiplatform. It's user-friendly. It's open source. Then why do I think it's bad to have it as a leading BitTorrent client?
Because they keep pulling these extra features: extended protocol, IRC client, content layer. These would be fine, if it weren't that the software is already unresponsive, crash prone, and resource hungry. Isn't Azureus already too big for its own good?
If you're using Windows, switch to uTorrent. It has all the features you mentioned -- enctyption, decentralized tracking. On other systems... uTorrent running on Wine? Virtual Machine?
Their choice to bundle adware will decrease their market share. Their BitTorrent client is slow and enourmously resource hungry. They don't belong in the most used BitTorrent clients list.

This would be possible if more resources were diverted to fighting organized crime (and spam). Some countries do it, some don't.
Market forces can't balance the problem. It's a matter of civil liberties. Perhaps you could cast your vote for a Pirate Party of some sort.
"I'd rather companies charge me extra for better access overall than have others pay them for exclusive better access."
But the question the writer's missing is: should we allow this to happen? The possibility of activism is completely lost on this person.
Amazing! That's the same combination I have on my luggage!
Jokes about France's military prowess not being modded funny? Next you'll tell me Slashdot is up for a redesign.
They're salubriously challanged.
All that newspeak is making me doubleplussick.
Getting too many connections from slashdotters...?
He's saying only one person out of ten people is unique.

Could be the end of "there's nothing good on TV".
Actually you could try building that dam in Kansas, where thermodynamics is still just a theory.
MORK? Looks like L33T.

It's hard to believe that lousy press release.
