Does anyone else find it humorous that Apple seems to think that two buttons on a mouse are too complicated, but it’s OK to make it so you need two fingers to use the trackpad? It all seems kind of hypocritical to me. I’d much rather zooming in worked with one finger on […]
I still can’t buy in to the WiMax concept. Why do we need to build this massive system when the infrastructure for wireless data access already exists? Seriously. Why not just beef up the cellular data capabilities to better handle high volumes of data traffic? Then the cellular carriers could make […]
She was born from a rag-tag
group of dreamers. Scrappers who felt
there should be more coming from a TV
than three repetitive channels with a
scratchy, pasty picture.
She grew up with just the blood, sweat and
tears of backbreaking work.
Town-to-town. Phone pole-to-phone pole.
Door-to-door.
Cable … she succeeded like America did.
The struggle took years.Technology that
failed, then flickered … and then
changed the […]
I think the competition Amazon will provide will benefit everyone in the end. It will push music towards DRM free and could eventually lead to price reductions with the added heat given Apple to protect their franchise. On the other hand, almost all the iPod users I know (and their is a shiaload of them) […]
Buried as inaccurate, and a case of lazy, presumptuous reporting. USA Today got their information by calling the four major labels, NONE of which sell on the previous (and probably still) #2 service, eMusic.com. The “reporters” didn’t even get sales figures from Amazon, so how exactly did they decide they Amazon was #2?
Basically the reporter […]
Would anyone hazard a guess as to how much Apple really cares about Amazon’s success?
That’s right. Most probably not a wit.
Amazon’s success with DRM free MP3s is clearly a win for consumers. And a huge win for Apple. Why? Because Apple makes money on hardware, and only setup iTunes Store to provide a source for […]
I’ll get dugg down for this, but whatever. What they don’t tell you is that the gap between Apple at number one and Amazon at number two is astronomical and probably always will be. Amazon is pretty decent compared to most, plus its mass distribution helps, but I’m sorry it is certainly no gold standard. […]
Amazon online mp3 downloads are the first time I have bought music since allofmp3.com. High-quality, reliable, and a huge selection. I love the amazon website anyway, with all the user reviews. Also, I have to say that amazon customer support is awesome. Recently I had an order that UPS delivered to […]
According to MacDailyNews (perhaps a bit biased, but worth considering)

The report that Amazon is No. 2 came from the “four major labels” and that they provide no numbers to support the claim. Furthermore, the fact that the claim came from them was omitted from news outlets such as Yahoo as appears in this […]
From the article: Amazon’s Baltaxe says the best defense against piracy is a good offense. “Songs sold without DRM, at high quality, with album art, that’s the best way to get people to buy music instead of stealing it. DRM is a way to punish people who are buying,” he says. “Offering a great product […]
