1. Comment - Zune dreams: Microsoft's refusal to say die

   (Sep 18, 2009 - 4:22 PM)

   This would be a great call to action if it wasn't already done. Your suggestions have already been implemented.
   Zune 4.0 software already has the bits for Zune on WinMo.
   XBOX Live store goes away this month I believe to be combined in to the Zune store, could be next month.
   Some may recall MS offering up a game dev studio, I believe it was XNA, that was the seed work for Zune HD game developers.
   As for buying Palm, who the hell would that be good for? Palm products suck and always have. Great looking stuff, but reliability is total trash.
   
   I'm no MS fan or Apple fan, but I think it will be surprising what MS does in the next few months with Zune. Will it get them to 50% market share eating away at Apple? Probably not. But there is a HUGE install base with XBOX 360 now joining the Zune fray. Add in WinMo which is rolling out stop-gap 6.5 with WinMo 7 very very close.

2. Comment - Microsoft begins updated Windows Live rollout

   If my experience so far is indicative of how this roll out is going, this one will go down in history as pretty bad. I'm not able to access anything but Hotmail right now. I can't even get to my homeserver.

3. Comment - Macrovision to acquire Blu-ray's BD+ for $45 million

   It'll make sense when the ink on the page of a book starts disappearing right before your eyes, thinking your losing your mind you turn to the back cover to find the only words left are "Protected by Macrovision" and a link to go re-authorize your book license it detected passes from one too many hands.

4. Comment - Sony Releases PSP Media Manager Tool

   How Sony is that? Buy our product then buy everything we should've included in the first place. I mean seriously, why would you mandate that video files have to named a certain way. I keep telling myself no more Sony products until they get off this proprietary kick. When will they wake up?

5. Comment - Study: One Third of Software Pirated

   (May 19, 2005 - 2:10 PM)

   It's not the US that is losing all those taxes and whatever, so it doesn't really matter. These companies have tax shelters set up in these other countries specifically so they don't have topay taxes. So cry me a river. I do feel that people should be properly compensated for their work, but I take issue with the fact that the US catches so much flack and we are the lowest offender. I can almost guarantee you that if you look at the list for who gets pirated the most it's the companies with near monopolies. Simple fix: Lower the price!!!
