  1. Re:What the heck is with Sony? on European PS3 Launch Delayed to 2007 · · Score: 1

    Please don't forget the fact they ripped on Nintendo for even considering a motion sensing controller when that was announced between E3 05 and 06. And then what do Sony announce at E3 06? Oh motion sensing capablities just like they took the piss out of nintendo for doing. I think Sony are going to lose this console war, with Nintendo and Microsoft both taking far more substantial slices of the cake. Brand loyalty only goes so far, and i think with the 360 selling to more hardcore gamers and the Wii selling to previously non-gamers, nintendo fan boys (like me) and alot of other people who like the cheapness, i think sony are going to be left out of pocket. They really shouldn't have used their most successful brand to try and help blu-ray along the way.

  2. It'll hurt them eventually on OLGA Shut Down by DMCA (again!) · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I've recently signed a small record deal with an indie label and i can honestly say that i would never have been as motivated to learn guitar and write songs had it not been for guitar tablature sites. The music that i listen to is often not even published (as sheet music) by the record labels and as a beginner i required other people's interpretations of my favourite songs so i could learn a version, work out chord structures and eventually write my own songs. If they want to close down guitar tablature sites i think record companies are hurting themselves in the long run, as they're erasing an entire generation of potential musicians.

  3. Re:This is nuts on Friendster Patents Social Networking · · Score: 1
    Can't someone just sue the USGov for being ignorant? Or, should I patent being ignorant?


    I think microsoft already got that one.
  4. Let's see... on Mysterious Website Actually Social Experiment · · Score: 1

    Let's see how many whores, who after seeing the amount of traffic this page has got do the exact same thing but with google click ads on the page aswell. I don't think it's going to be quite as widespread as all the milliondollarhomepage immitations though.
