You're right, I shouldn't assume that; however, I bet that the majority of the users of itunes use the store because the itunes store has the most buyers of any music store (that fact was true when I read it, but it may have changed, but

There is plenty of good music playing software; furthermore, one may end up saving money by not paying the itunes store =] I like this unofficial solution.

Very true. In my life time I hope to see "they/their" as both singular and plural. It would save me a lot of time because I dislike having to write "he or her," "his or hers," or think of a creative way to write around the idea completely.

Well to be honest, I am shocked that the illegitimate ones make so MUCH money. That is unbelievable.

I agree. Something I might throw in for the reader is an article like: http://immike.net/blog/2008/02/06/xhtml-2-vs-html-5/ (I have no idea on how credible that is; however, it seems to give some interesting information on the matter) so

You are well within your rights. I read a thousand articles about new technology ranging from graphite that is a super conductor to this. I haven't seen most of the technology I have read about and would appreciate reading about something c

Strunk and White say that punctuation goes inside the quotation marks regardless of the context (except for question marks and explanation marks), so if you are listing quotes, then the comma goes on the inside of each quote. On a side note

I have nothing against short and witty comments but I too have found that when a person takes the time to write a long comment, he or she usually has something intelligent or interesting to say. It seems unlikely that an unintelligent indiv

That makes sense- but I guess what I failed to say was that all of the ants need to go over the same information, which is basically just a system scan taking a longer amount of time and not at once, which would just lower available ram- an

I do not believe this to be noteworthy because you can clearly choose to open things in IE. Whereas in the chrome frame you get double the security risk and don't get to choose which browser to use. At least with that plugin you get a choic

I would be too. As for the ants- they would have to be giant ants in my point of view. Able to sniff if something out of the thousands of somethings is wrong. And if they are all equal detectors, then everything would get a strong trail o

And I believe the article writer talked about ripping some of the songs? With that mentality it is a dream come true- no?

I like the idea, yes- but I am worried about the part of "syncing even when the app isn't open on the computer" (not an exact quote) That sounds like a HUGE security risk

I went through a class with a similar teaching style. I loved it. I sat in the front row each day because I was learning so much. It was in fact the first math class I thoroughly enjoyed.

It's not even a working "Chrome OS". It is a fan based unstable linux distro revolving around the Chrome browser. One might as well make chrome and open office the only two apps on his or her computer and call it chrome OS....

If I am at my house, then I like blasting the music as high as possible. Me sometimes getting up and dancing really isn't a problem because it only means that I'm in a good mood and the coding is easier. (Of course I sit back down and code

I am a bigger fan of the Windows 7 desktops, although, they never last long with me anyways. I have a habit, like a lot of people, to make/find my own.

That's unbelievable. However, it reminds me of an open platform something or another which invites developers to make applications which can be rejected for ridiculous reasons. -I make that connection because it is absolutely ridiculous to

One of my teachers freshman year was talking to the class about his friend, he would often start a conversation with strangers he met at bus stops (as an example) with a question like this: "What kind of music do you think you like?" Now so

On my wireless thingy- it has two antennae. I made two tinfoil "dishes" around them. The antenna are always at the focal point so they can receive signals from farther away. It works- but if it is not at the focal point it might not work, s

I think the point was that it is hard for participants to cheat, the owner isn't going to go lower than a certain amount; thus, the owner is always going to break even or profit. If the owner puts the price too high then the buyer is no lon

I like seeing the individual karma points on links, if I see an interesting link with a lot of karma, it shows that a lot of individuals found it interesting, as with the opposite. I find it helpful.

I disagree, if not a visual design, then a design for the code itself is needed- well, it's needed for big enough projects. If one were to skip planning out the project and how to code it, one could easily mess up whatever protocol system

Programming can be cool. Back at school I was using a text editor people hadn't seen before, they asked me where I got it and I told them I programmed it myself (It's really not that hard to make a text editor, but they didn't know that =p)

Seeing as I'm on a plane every few years I'll defiantly try this out. On a side note, did anyone else find this amusing? Here's a quick summary of Saper's research findings: "For a small mammal, finding food on a daily basis is a critical
