If they change the contract, you CAN get out, but you usually need to drop them within 30 days of them sending your the change to the T&C's

There's exceptions to every rule, but the vast majority of terrorists aren't people with great promise. Same as the vast majority of criminals. Sure, some are evil geniuses, but most can't find their way out of a paper bag. Osama was smart enough to not get caught for 10 years, which is damn impressive, even if the Pakistanis were helping him out. On the other hand, we've had the shoe bomber, and the underwear bomber.... Not exactly savants.

Do you own your stuff, or does your stuff own you? To many people aren't caged by the walls they live in, but by what's contained in those walls. Not being able to collect a bunch of crap can actually be very freeing.

I completely disagree. There are whole genres that are pretty much untouched. Even in the realm of mainstream pop music, they really only have a small fraction of what's out there. While the game mechanics do limit what songs work in-game (without being stupid), I doubt they have even achieved 10% of the usable material. That being said, GH did go to the hardcore territory, and certain death.

1. A crappy economy over the past few years has people slowing down extra purchases. 2. Can't see a huge difference on smaller TV sets. 3. Requires HDMI on the TV. Shut out many early adapters how had high-def TV's without HDMI 4. Media is still more expensive (this is a big one) 5. DVD will play in nearly all computers, car dvd players, etc. Not so for blu-ray 6. Not to put to fine a point on it, but porn hasn't really embraced blu-ray. 7. Recordable media and disks are still too expensive. 8. Extra copy protection crap has turned off other potential early-adapters (who want to put the blu-ray content on a media server or something) 9. Competition from on-demand services.
