I'm taking option B)...they can tell the government about my Netflix choices all they want, but I guarantee that streaming all those movies goes over the 40GB limit pretty quick. Compound that with a few days use of remote desktop and suddenly I'm in the top tier.

Where do you live...I might need to move.

I'm in that same situation...I've opted for the DSL...fuck TimeWarner. I've been without their cable for three years now and I couldn't be happier about it. They wanted $150/room to install cable...you know...on those cable lines that were already existing in my house.

I'm just hoping the DSL is sufficient to watch my Netflix on.

No Alamo Drafthouse Cinema near you?

I don't know nothin' 'bout no fancy timey zones, but your postin' says you done it "Wednesday April 01,@08:41PM"...by my reconin' that there's a...strange way to write the date...I never noticed before...really? ",@"?

How about animated text in a flash box that you have to read...surely it would be pretty hard for a bot to read 3-d rotating animated text right?

Would that be innovative?

Drunken Calculus...wasn't that a Jackie Chan movie?

and a bull is...male cow? Or are you hinging on the technicality that they're not adults necessarily?

the double 'd' is for a double dose of pimpin'

Of OLED's ever get it together, then eventually it may be financially advantageous to use a roll up touch screen. Maybe not cheaper, but it's got some nice advantages.

Let us know the moment you get NetFlix working with this. I was going to switch my HTPC over to linux to reduce the overhead (it has trouble with HD streams), but now i'm going to have to wait 'till there's a viable option for Linux.

Aside from that, I kinda like the new player, it seems more stable; though, i haven't gotten a chance to scrutinize the IQ (tossed on a movie and went to cook dinner.

Who stopped using VHS? I've got a 4-head player that's pretty sweet, I don't see no tracking lines or nothin!

I think then, the idea may be to allow 'mastering' of a small set of discs. Creating a stamp is expensive, whereas if you're going to only do a couple hundred CD's, burning them might be cheaper.

Still, I agree with one of the GP's that pointed out that CD's are old hat and quickly becoming irrelevant to the music crowd.

As a long time Windows user, this is the reason I've got xubuntu on my laptop. I'm still having trouble navigating everything, and I don't understand a lot of it, but my experience with XP's activation and the issues I've had with trying the 7 beta have thoroughly convinced me that Microsoft is attempting to commit some bizarre music industry like suicide by choking off legitimate customers.

Pirates will ALWAYS break your security, please stop punishing paying customers for it.

I dunno, maybe because it's too early, but I read the headline as "Sorry to Unveil..." and all I could think was "it's okay, one of these day's we'll actually have an alternative power source."
