Heh. Oh, EMI...like you have enough working capital to really matter anymore. Not since you lost Queen's catalogue, that is...

...I'm sorry, but *what*?

I'll do that if you look up she's "Atomic." Goes great with Wolfgang Gartner's "Firepower," Skrillex's "Kill Everybody," and Justice's "Waters of Nazareth."

I can tell you this much: the 360 one will have three discs, and all the dialogue will be canned and slightly compressed.

Annnnnd *purchase* "World of Fantasy." It'll be in my next DJ set. Thanks, io9!

In modern 360 deals for recording artists, it's somewhat common to have an artist sign away the rights to their image and likeness. That way, the label can get a percentage of whatever money the artist is paid for doing a television commercial or movie spot.

Why give up when you can escalate?

I'd actually like to see what sort of havoc 4Chan would wreak upon the poor inboxes of Congressmen and Senators. I'm not *advocating* it, just...curious. ;)

People will come for miles to "demonstrate" and "protest." And when the "powers that…

Ah, going the "passive-aggressive" route, eh? Good luck with that. /sarcasm

I don't think it's "our" country anymore.

It's always...bothered...me as to why Senators and Congressmen have short term limits, yet can be reelected an infinite number of times.

Didn't we say that about rising oil prices, tax hikes, and the Patriot Act? Subvert a man's "freedom" gradually, and eventually he'll have nothing and be grateful for it.

Same...22.

I kinda hate my government right now, yeah. Or at least, the part where Medicare isn't universal.
