I think there is plenty of room for multiple podcast apps to do well, even with Apple's version present. Podcasts really do make up an important part of many people's day (not unlike an audiobook, or NPR, H. Stern, Rush, etc.), and the way

From Lessig's "The Future of Ideas" concerning the lawsuit against Bidder's Edge for scraping eBay data: Both sides had a point, and while my bias is with [Bidder's Edge], I don’t mean to deny the plausibility of a different regime. What I

I get the gist of the submission, but "Satellite killed..." is a bit sensational. The AMC-14 is alive, albeit under DOD ownership: http://space.skyrocket.de/doc_sdat/amc-14.htm

I've seen this type of story many times. All that can be concluded is that Max and Microsoft simply aren't compatible with each other. Nothing shocking with that... he picked the wrong place to start his career and they hired the wrong guy.
