Comment Summary "Rip-off" comment is misleading (Score 5, Informative) 87

After RTFA, I would just like to point out that Moore doesn't call iTunes or micropayments "a rip-off."

After mentioning the 99c US price for individual iTunes tracks, the interviewer tells Mr. Moore that the UK price is 79p. Mr Moore responds "you're being ripped off." The inference here is that 79p is not equal, given to the exchange rate of US Dollars to UK Pounds, to 99 cents.

This is one of many (growing) examples of the /. summaries being inaccurate, sensational, and combative. I expect this from the comments. In the summary, I expect at least the pretense of some sort of journalistic integrity.

Sigh.
