  • Black Friday Retail Observations: Tech is Golden
    "www.bloomberg.com/apps...;

    People may be in the stores, but the numbers imply a bit of a
    pull back on spending-- enough to be somewhat worrying.

  • Best Buy/Gateway Desktops More Expensive, Worse Than Apple iMac, Says Mossberg
    If you spend that $100 you save buying the Mac versus the Gateway, you can pick up a copy of Win XP and you can boot TWO operating systems on your Mac that will be superior to Windows Vista.

  • Universal Music Group Readies DRM-Free Music, Sans iTunes
    I think your argument is illogical: Universal is punishing Apple by not giving them DRM-free downloads for the crime of Apple not sharing their DRM system? Doesn't make sense to me. Maybe UMG just wants to test market their s**t in smaller markets before completing its negotiations with the Big Dog, Apple.


    With regards to Fairplay: Jobs said opening it up could make it easier to hack. I don't know if that's true, or if that reflects his honest opinion, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

    "Under today's environment 80% of the music stored on all iPods is of the unprotected mp3 variety and I believe it is a fair guess that most of that is pirated."

    Disagree. I have a mostly full 4 Gig Nano and there is nothing illegal on it, period. There's LOTS of free musical and spoken word content out there.

  • Universal Music Group Readies DRM-Free Music, Sans iTunes
    These big labels should be informed that suicidal actions tend not to reward shareholders very well. Apple does not really need ANY of these labels to sell iPods; there is plenty of great free content on the web. The labels, on the other hand, need digital distribution, with CD sales slumping.
