The game is always-online, even for single player or local LAN. Which means you can get lag-killed in single player, or the server is full (which happened at launch) so you can't play your single player game. The game also kicks you

If a new architecture was developed you could bring up the whole stack by cross-{assembling,compiling} from an already supported target. By doing so you could test the output using a simulator (or actual hardware) and then when the assembl

You are free to do whatever you want with the software. The only real restriction under the GPL is that you are not allowed to distribute modified binaries of GPL software without releasing the corresponding source code.

I fall into a similar category as you. The only difference is that I prefer that my music come on CD unless it is an online only album. For tagging I use EasyTag[1]. It looks to be very similar to mp3tag except that it runs on pretty much
