Sores for site eyes 
| | Terry Heaton: There is now officially no difference -- online at least -- between TV stations (and networks) and newspapers. |
Without which there may be no hope
Questions and answers about DRM:
| | The proponents of DRM have narrowly defined things based on their interests. This is why the 'argument' David Smith is looking for hasn't taken place. History shows us that monopoly interests, or even attempts to dominate a market, are not served by an open discussion. |
| | If you were Apple or Microsoft, attempting to get exclusive access to the world's most widely circulated content, why would you talk to anybody else, and why would you talk about anything other than the content guys' hot buttons? Seizing the territory is what they are doing, and a 'consumer' market outlook resonates with the studio leadership. None of these companies undestand why or how 'consumer' is a dead end. |
| | It isn't that information wants to be free, as much as it needs to be free to move to have value. |
| | A lifetime of dictating to your audience doesn't prepare you for dialogue. |
Caffeine nation
| | A woman, babbling away on her hot pink cell phone had left her car door open as she prepared herself for what presumably would be the usual 9:30 caffeine jolt. Normally I would see nothing unethical about the neglect of a car door. However, this particular SAAB 900 wagon was not parked in any old spot. It was blocking in another customer, and, more importantly, it had a newborn in the passenger seat strapped into a child seat. |
