Because you live in Australia?
Games here in Canada via Steam are always the same price, or more often cheaper than at the store.

Hell, even for light users it's already a problem.
We have a family of 6, every one of us has our own computers. Factor in Steam games from me, netflix from everyone else plus every day usage and 60GB is nothing. We already have 2 connections for this exact reason.
Why they seem to think a 14mbps connection should have a 60GB limit is beyond me. That's Cogeco though, not Bell, but it's the same shit.
Looks like the archives still work:

Yeah, I didn't even get a chance to look at it.
I'll set my computers to refresh the page every couple of minutes until it comes back.....
I'm not sure if you are trying to be funny or not (because you aren't), but since when is installing/removing software a part of a warranty for a new computer? And not to defend Best Buy, but if you want them to setup your computer for you, why shouldn't they be charging you for it?
Not to mention, how many people running Linux would ever let any tech install things on their computer, let alone one from Best Buy.
This is exactly how it should have happened.
He didn't pay his $75 fee for firefighters, so he can either watch his house burn or pay the full amount it costs to put out the fire. From what I read he didn't get that second option, which is just stupid.
I think the best part is them claiming that they were hacked, when in reality they made the site's backup available on their main page for all to download for a short period of time when they were trying to restore the site after the DDoS attack. A zip file that was not encrypted in any way that contained EVERYTHING.
Smart move guys! Especially considering the amount of page requests you were getting,
MPAA is down for me and aiplex is still trying to load.
I'm in Canada though.
To be fair, while the OP clearly has reading issues, he's right (if you ignore his link).
You can easily change your user-agent in Opera and I would assume Chrome would be the same.
And, if you actually read the article, you'd find out that this isn't what it's about.
And what is your point here?
That Google is the most widely used because it's just better than the rest for results? That's a damn good reason to stop them. We should be taking Google offline right now!!!! I'm sure no one will mind using switching to Bing, their results are ALMOST decent. Better yet, we can use one of the no-name search engines.
Also, why would Bing quit? When does Microsoft quit? How was that in any way relevant?
Your logic is astounding. I'm also fairly sure your list of search engines is nowhere near complete.
(I'm hoping you are just a troll, but in case you are not, please don't ever breed)
It's P2P right? The downloaders are distributors.
And you can prove that they did distribute? Since the RIAA isn't able to or prove much for that fact, yet the defendants still end up paying the price when they lose.
I don't think suing teenagers is the way to go. Regardless of whether she knew it was illegal or not.
Basically this. If you can't use it to stream porn, it's useless.
Sorry, I must have got it confused. There was a discussion on another site about this where I seemed to have gotten the idea that the vice principal had made a statement. Carry on...
A lot of news outlets are quoting the vice principal on this:

On November 11, 2009, Plaintiffs were for the first time informed of the above-mentioned capability and practice by the School District when Lindy Matsko, an Assistant Principal at Harriton High School, informed minor Plaintiff that the School District was of the belief that minor Plaintiff was engaged in improper behavior in his home, and cited as evidence a photograph from the webcam embedded in minor Plaintiff’s personal laptop issued by the School District.
