Yes and this question was more posed to those living in the US who have access to the Hulu(s) and the Spotify(s). I stopped downloading many years ago after the content industries provided legal and enjoyable alternatives. thus I wonder why

I wouldn't say its dead, but for me at this time it's pointless. The majority of my Facebook friends are not using it. A few got on there, but like Google Buzz before it there is zero usage from my network. Overall my Google Plus is a no m

And thus they need to be in that game! Nintendo harbors great will with consumers like Apple. WebOS seems to be a great mobile operating system. To witness some true, fierce competition, Nintendo should mix their branding/games into WebOS

Time for Nintendo to buy WebOS and start up their iPhone competitor devices. Such could be a real serious competitor to Apple and Nintendo is losing market share. They know how to do hardware and know how to market hand held IP devices. W

No, but it could be netflix helping the acceleration of the DVD's demise. Also, I'm sure the additional monies made from those who still rent DVDs will be used to help support the ever increasing cost of streaming content.
