Beats is a brand for suckers. The great thing about them, though, is their brightly-coloured products stand out so well, it's easy to spot all the stooges in the room.

I love when the Apple apologists throw out stupid stuff like this. It's as if you think state attorneys are some solitary old man in a room, capable of doing only one thing at a time.

England has always been about five years ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to authoritarian garbage like this. Look for these sorts of bills to be introduced in other places if it's successful there.

And they're in the process of ruining OS X with that ugly, flat iOS 7 look, too. It's truly a shame what's become of Apple since Jobs passed.
