Comment did they account for cultural differences? (Score 2) 76

i know some asian people and their idea of beauty is different than european. but for us europeans, this is old news. most models used on magazine covers and beauty queens have had similar facial shapes and features for decades. i remember seeing feminists on Maury and other talk shows in the 80's complaining how the media had a narrow view of beauty.

Steam is faster along with xbox downloads. itunes and google play is hit and miss. some apps download fast others are like watching trees grow. same with streaming video on netflix and vudu. on vudu i've noticed older content is SLOW and cuts out a lot of times, most likely because it's not on a CDN

not much considering that your speed is mostly dependent on the CDN that your content is being hosted on and it's relation to you.

Comment Ipads last A LOT longer (Score 4, Insightful) 307

people replace phones every two years. you can keep an ipad at least twice as long. I have an ipad 2 i bought on launch day with a cracked screen that i plan to use for at least another two years if nothing else as a cheap ereader to carry tech books around.

i will probably buy a refurb ipad air 2 this year when the new version comes out and keep it another 4-5 years as well
