Not a fan of iTM so far. Listening to my library from my iP while plugged into my car, I have to activate an option to enable Match over cellular. I knew right then that this was gonna spell trouble. A 10 minute drive home from work this afternoon and I listened to about 90 seconds of 1 damn song. …

Cmon man, that's 1/10th of a cent for tracks which may or may not have been acquired legally. Sounds like a good deal for me.

Redacted.

Whoa, there is a lot of misconception going on with what whiskey is or isn't. There are a series of laws in the respective countries that define internally how whiskey is to be made - Grain content, yada yada. There are also a series of international trade agreements which regulate..well..basically the marketing of…

This fella begs to disagree

Fuck him. At least he hasn't literally received a dick up his ass.

Mat, you and the coffee-maker are both sort of right. I mean, he was the best single person that Twitter has ever had...but yeah, most people knew about it before him.

Nope. Not when you knew of a child molester for at least a decade and did nothing about it.

I have to imagine that Wolfram Alpha is getting a healthy bump in usage since Siri went live.

I'm not sure the pharaohs were the most humble fellas this side of the sand dunes.

Your last sentence is what most people don't understand with the recording business. An album is basically a marketing vehicle to get people to show up for concerts. Even with huge recording contract advances for the top flight bands..they're just that..advances against future album sales. A band touring…

From what I just read, depending on the contract between record label and artist, the artist could get somewhere from roughly 8c - 11c per 99c iTunes download. That seems about in line with the way it's been in the past - a CD sale could net a top flight artist like U2 maybe 2 dollars, a lesser known artist may…

Tim, by all reports, is one hell of a businessman, but I don't know much about his creative side... I guess Phil Schiller is stepping in as the challenger of creative ideas now? I know he's a marketing guru, but if not him, who herds the creative kitties now? Jon Ive?

Dude, the Black Plague wiped out almost 25% of EARTH's population.

I have a 4S and love it. I know people with the GS2 and they love it. We can get into all this Fanboy vs. Fandroid stuff for days..but essentially it comes down to which one strikes your fancy. You're probably slightly on your own (more so than Apple) when it comes to media content with Android, and of course Apple…

Yeah, I've seen the same thing with my 4S. Reading through the comments it seems the culprit is iOS5. Leaving my phone in my car during at typical 8 hour work day and I see an almost 10% drop in battery with no apps running in the background. I suppose that means the standby time is roughly half of what it should…

Yes, I was about to post the same thing. The concept of Citizen Journalism is fine, but I think there should be some sort of editorial backstop as well.

Yeah, I love this. Maybe not a stand alone device but something to work in concert with your Kindle or iPad. If you're headed to the park or the beach, just flick (something like what I saw on Avatar?) whatever you're reading on your Kindle over to your Kindle Sheet. There, I just named it.

If you give a phone some mango, don't come back to MS bitching that it tried to hump your ear.

With iPad and Galaxy Tab on the market...I wonder how retailers agreed to take on even half that amount of Xooms.
