:rolleyes:I don't know where you get your fruitcake information, but you should seek another source, really. You are so amazingly wrong it is truly mind boggling. In all honesty, I have never seen anyone outside of a Microsoft board so utterly and blatantly ignorant with regards to Apple...
Boy you really don't know anything do you? None of this would have started if you hadn't made the moronic statement that you did. And FYI, Apple takes tremendous pride in their innovation and industrial design. Jonathan Ive has won numerous awards for his work at Apple. But Apple doesn't...
LOL! I'm sure you'll forgive us for taking your "opinions" with a very small grain of salt. Especially after this ludicrous assertion of yours. Anyone that makes a statement like that certainly cannot be counted on to provide anything remotely resembling "factual" information. Furthermore...
Perhaps you meant to say Microsoft and not Apple? If not, you are simply clueless to the point of inanity. Some research would be in order before you embarass yourself on the Internet like that again. Since you couldn't even find one, here's a hint: IEEE 1394, commonly known as 'FireWire'...
John Fortt is known in IT circles as a moron. He's been so consistenty wrong with his "predictions" that him denying it usually means it's a lock.
Hardly. It's more like you just simply don't understand things. Your (inane) assertion that Apple would now be losing money on the iPod to make it...
Guys, Don't bother arguing with RobertR. He's convinced that he and only he is right and wont budge. When he is proven wrong, he will go back and edit his post to remove whatever he said that was wrong, even 2 years after the fact. It's a no-win situation guys, let it go.
Actually an audiophile would either use uncompressed AIFF or a high bit rate AAC. AAC != DRM you know. And geeks would most likely use Ogg Vorbis and not buy the iPod in the first place. :)
Hysterical. What everyone misses is that the iTunes Music Store is nothing more than a loss leader for Apple to sell more iPods, period, end of story. Let 100 other "downloadable music" sites come online, doesn't matter. No one else has the iPod. For every iPod sold, that's another...
Why in the hell would he want to run Napster when there's iTunes Music Store? Do you know anything about Apple's products? On second thought don't answer, we already know the answer to that question.
Robert Altman's Short Cuts Unless you give me proof Colin, I am assuming that this will never come to DVD. It's been over 6 years (almost 7) and I'm still waiting for it. Does that fall within your "rules?"
Michael you simply don't get it. The iTunes Music store could continue to lose money for 5 years, as long as they sell iPods, which they are doing at record numbers. The business model is selling Apple hardware. Read that last sentence slowly and repeatedly. They simply don't need to make money...
Lee, Keep in mind that your battery life will plummet if you use the iPod in that fashion. iPod has 64MB of flash memory in which it stores data from the hard drive. Normally this is perfect because the avergae MP3 or AAC file is ~ 5MB so it can read 10 songs off the disk and store them in...
