  1. Comment - Nokia lawyers up, chooses to fight Apple in court rather than the market

    (Oct 28, 2009 - 6:50 AM)

    I suspect this to be about an as yet unreleased handset or concept by Nokia and Apple having filed iPhone patents that infringe Nokia's existing patents around the areas that the unreleased handset will be using

  2. Comment - Mozilla: We'll keep pushing for Ogg Theora in HTML 5

    (Jul 27, 2009 - 6:22 AM)

    Theora and FLV both branched from the same codec by the same company. They're both comparable quality. H.264 is a different beast and not generally used on video websites due to patent issues

  3. Comment - Microsoft 'Laptop Hunters' ad gets changed at Apple's behest

    Have you tried actually doing some work with a mac? ;)

    I use both OSX and Windows. I bought a macbook pro because it's nice hardware, not because the OS is much good. It crashes more often than my Vista x64 laptop and cost much more too. Nicer screen though.

    OS9 was a piece of s***. OSX is much much better, but if you're saying you've never had MacOS crash EVER then I'm suspecting that before OSX you had a mac in a box that you used as some kind of furniture.

    http://www.channelregist...oft_windows_7_ie_europe/ explains exactly what is going on - perhaps the author of this opinion piece should try some journalism ;)

  5. Comment - Recording artists claim their music is being boycotted over royalties

    "The radio stations are leeching off of the artists, and the artists should get paid"
    Utter rubbish. Radio stations get listeners through music, but they also, through choosing music to play, give free publicity to artists. Which is clearly what this is about. musicFIRST is not about music at all but about money.

    The very fact they're complaining of a "boycott" shows that they need each other. It's symbiosis. Artists bring advertising revenues to commercial radio stations in the form of listeners and commercial radio stations bring record sales to artists in the form of listeners.
