Sure, but the masses are not listening to the unknown bands. They are listening to the best talent in the world which the labels find, cultivate, market and create icons out of - ones that the MASSES follow, love and adore. Further the maj

I don't think the YouTube analogy works here, because YouTube's main focus was never to be an online music service. That is Grooveshark's sole purpose and is marketed as. There are many music services that allowed that same thing and are

Are you willing to pay $10 a month for GrooveShark once they are forced to change their business model? Pardon the pessimism, but I don't recall any online music service that didn't negotiate with the labels first surviving these lawsuits.

I just got a iPhone 4S on Sprint. They are the only carrier to offer deep Google Voice integration. Unfortunately and not surprising there are many issues with Sprint's GV on iPhone. If you want to use Siri to send text messages you have t

Thanks for the information. I don't see how Google Voice can work with an iPhone? At least not as well as it does with an Android device and or forgo using iMessage - use iPhone email client to send/receive text messages. Though if you fo

Yes with a Mac Mini connected to a LCD TV you have a ton more choices(hulu, cbsnews.com/video, tv.com & others). It's not the same user experience as a TV, but for me it's better. It allows me to watch/listen to shows/movies in one tab

So I can hook up any web service that has a SMS offering to your service and have it interface with Siri? Yesterday I wrote a blog post re: checking my bank balance using Siri ( http://ryanspahn.com/siri-checks-bank-balance.html ), as well

I would be interested in hearing if you received the text and where your received it on your iPhone. Did you receive it within the iMessage app or only through the mail app? Prior to having iPhone and Sprint, I had iPhone and ATT. I used

SpeaktoIt seems to have more personality based off responses it gives. It is not as serious as Siri. Though Siri does have its Easter eggs too though less so then speak to it. Both are equally useful and enjoyable and have their strength
