1. Whilst reading the threads on the music biz "sales losses" and subsequent "price drop", please check out this clever site that beautifully illustrates why Apple's iTunes is a big piece of shit: http://www.downhillbattle.org/itunes/index.html 2. Anyone ever considered that maybe, just maybe,...all of these music biz lawsuits that are going after 12 year old music downloaders for millions of dollars may just be a co-operative ploy between the music moguls and the media conglomerates that print the news? Isn't it interesting how these lawsuits were put forward just this week and all the major media ( who also have shares and financial stakes with the music companies they are reporting on) are on this with similar headlines?. This is an attempt to scare the general public. It will be interesting to see how far these lawsuits actually go. I'd guess it'll fizzle before getting anywhere. 3. Whoever posts html to mailing lists, get a clue, please. Its annoying.
