Although I don't particularly care for Comcast's business practices, they do provide a way to check what your current usage is for the month (along with how far you got through your quota in previous months)

Log into your account on Comcast's website and go to "Users & Settings"

Actually, for that format, you could use all of any repeating number. For the more "advanced" CD Key which had 4 digits in the first group, you just had to change the 4th digit until it worked (i.e. 9990-999999999, 9991-999999999, etc.)

All of the apps (except those built with the PDK) are HTML and Javascript.

While I'm not happy with my current WebOS phone (the Pixi Plus that I had to beg for from Verizon's third-party insurance provider to replace the Palm Plus that had a cracked screen), I love the OS. Even the built-in apps can be modified.

One feature that I eventually had to resort to Help to find was the Autocorrect settings (specifically to add context-specific abbreviations to the list that would automatically be expanded to the full text). This was very easily found via menus and damn near impossible via the ribbon.

Pray you never want to buy a Myst game for your PS3... They'd probably do something really asinine like having to enter the keycode using the D'ni alphabet and numbers.

I, for one, do not consider an "open standard" to mean one you can read the specs for BEFORE you purchase the license, rather than after. "Open" to me, means unencumbered.

Keeping H.264 in the code would also mean that they'd have to maintain separate codebases if they wanted to publish their changes back up (which is how open source is supposed to work): Chrome - Chromium - WebKit - Konqueror

Chrome was created to boost brand loyalty. Google does not charge for it, nor are ads directly incorporated. There is no revenue stream associated with Chrome.

Well, considering the fact that any software that decodes H.264 is technically required to pay a patent licensing fee, I'm not particularly surprised that Google would drop the support. You can probably expect support to be added in 2028, when the patents expire.

Well, that would be 2 out of the 3 surviving. Syd passed away in 2006, and Wright in 2008. Roger would still get his share of royalties (except for sales on "Momentary Lapse of Reason" and "The Division Bell" when he wasn't in the band anymore)

Use Audacity to do them justice. It's fairly easy, and with a little patience, you can even cut out the audible click between the tracks.

Also with your example from The Wall... "Comfortably Numb" is the only song that is completely standalone. Everything else blends with either the previous track, following track, or both.

And sadly... Brain Damage and Eclipse are sold separately

I can understand Pink Floyd's objection to selling by the track (at least partially). With The Wall, "Comfortably Numb" is the only song on the entire double-album that does not segue in from the previous or out to the following song. In fact, even "Outside the Wall" segues into "In the Flesh" with the phrase "Isn't this where we came in?" split between the two, which made for a continuous loop of the album in 8-track form.

I have a few songs that I have edited for play on my MP3 player so that songs that are usually played together are combined so that I can listen on shuffle (such as "Brain Damage / Eclipse", "Long Distance Runaround / The Fish", and "Heartbreaker / Living Loving Maid" (though Led Zeppelin denies those songs are meant to be together, the lyrics indicates otherwise)).

Don't forget about WebOS... The source is so open, you can even change the built-in apps (even directly on the device via a terminal session). The "jailbreak" process to allow unsigned apps is to type "upupdowndownleftrightleftrightbastart" on the phone (which even Palm will tell you). They have even provided an RSS feed for the official App Catalog to be used by any third-party application managers to use (such as Preware)

Even Android looks closed-source in comparison.

WebOS 2.0 is scheduled to be released with the Palm Pre 2 in December, but the existing phones can be upgraded to it.

You mean Zynga actually is the money hungry whore everyone thought it was?
