<0> customers will feel used and abused, they're turn to piracy or other forms of media
<0> they'll*
<1> Do you really believe enough consumers would be willing to pirate that it would effect those media?
<1> It's not piracy
<1> it's people thinking DVD is good enough
<0> media at a big turning point as far as I'm concerned.. and you're right vhs to dvd was a revolution, dvd - hd-dvd/bluray is a envolution.
<2> its going to piss enough people off and confuse enough people that adoption will be slow
<1> Ok
<0> people don't like being forced down one path...it's human nature..if they can't do what they want with the stuff they buy, they'll find other forms or media, or go the piracy route, or boycott
<2> and then you have 2 formats instead of 1 to cause more issues. its just a damn mess
<1> Universal Players are crucial
<1> this isn't a neccessary market like VCR's
<1> if it's split, it'll go the way of SACD/DVDA
<0> the amount of people I know who refuse to buy cds now because of all the copy protection on them is climbing at a big rate
<1> can buy CD's
<1> just disable auto-run on your computer
<1> or don't play them in your computer
<0> a lot of copy protected cds won't play in older cd players
<2> many cds wont play in older players, dvd drives, some car players, etc
<2> another mess
<1> Don't buy those.
<2> **** them they can keep it.
<1> itunes
<1> way of the future
<1> itunes and music giants
<1> depending on the user
<2> i dont like not having physical product either
<0> I buy cds for the physical disk, the artwork, the lyrics, the packaging
<2> if i pay $15 I want a cd, but it shouldnt have all that damn copy protection
<2> **** having to burn the cd yourself, label it, blah blah
<0> well that's another thing, I don't use the cd's I buy anymore
<0> I buy one, rip it into a format I find easiest
<0> put it on the shelf for safe keeping
<1> ya
<1> physical media is a PITA
<2> it might be different if you were allowed to redownload songs you lose
<2> but say you have 500 itunes songs and your hard drive craps out
<2> you're **** out of luck
<0> I'm actually very angry at companies like riaa at the moment..
<2> and backing them up is the real PITA. the ****ing thing should have an archive feature which keeps track of what you burned off and when.
<2> so you dont have to
<0> I consider myself a novice musician, I use a lot of tab sites for songs I want to learn - my favourite one mxtabs had a caught order to be taken down because the people who posted their interpretations of those songs were close to the original
<0> the interpretated tab sheets that is
<1> Ya
<1> sorry
<0> that was a reason to buy a cd
<0> since I get more value out of it that way
<0> listen to a song..really like it, then go grab the tab for it
<0> oh well I just see a big paradigm shift coming
<3> If you wanted to have the monitor about 100m (330ft) away from the computer, how would you do it? I was thinking maybe getting one of those vga extenders with TPcable. Are there no wireless extenders for a reasonable price?
<1> WHY would you want to do that?
<3> :)
<4> I'm wondering the same thing
<3> I want the computer locked up and show video on the monitors
<4> why 100 m? :p
<3> fine 10-100m
<3> I just want range.
<1> again
<1> why
<3> I want to keep the computer itself separate, locked up, safe. and monitors that everyone can see
<4> I don't think its a very good idea to do that
<3> why not?
<4> good luck finding cables over 10ft
<3> I never said I wanted a 330ft vga cable
<3> I've been looking at vga extenders that use tp cables
<5> Help! I get repeated Event 51's in my system log
<6> Savage^: http://www.eventid.net/
<5> i feel like im closing in on the solution of my problem
<4> closing in.. like a deer in headlights?
