Born and bred on the marshy plateau between Usher and Dunwich, I moved to Arkham when I was fourteen and never left my home afterwards except for a 4-year spell at the Miskatonic U and occasional business trips to the Antarctic. I am now retired, and spend most of my time on the care and feeding of a shoggoth willed to me by a dear departed uncle.

BD+ content is here now and causing headaches for customers, just as expected. The WSJ reports that older Blu-Ray Players made by Samsung and others can't play new Fox content which includes BD+ copy protection "features". It's nice to see the WSJ taking notice.

Some smart guy or other said that if you're not making enemies by the time you're thirty you're obviously doing something wrong. Well, I keep getting modded troll for my opinions. That should qualify.
