Firon Posted February 23, 2006 Report Share Posted February 23, 2006 yeah, paying so much for really low quality copies of movies is just awful. it costs less to BUY THE DVDS, and you get better copies at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 "The billionth song "Speed of Sound" was purchased as part of Coldplay's "X&Y" album by Alex Ostrovsky from West Bloomfield, Michigan and as the grand prize winner he will receive a 20-inch iMac, 10 fifth generation iPods and a $10,000 gift card good for any item on the iTunes Music Store. In addition, Apple will establish a scholarship to the world-renowned Juilliard School in his name to commemorate this milestone."That's a big wow... He definitely got all his money's worth of songs right back, and then some... O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixshot Posted February 24, 2006 Report Share Posted February 24, 2006 Gosh, such negativity towards iTunes. Well, not that it matters much for me. I use iTMS but I nab their weekly freebies when I hear a good song. It costs me nothing so it's still a legit "purchase." The RIAA has nothing on me. I have yet to find a decent album or batches of songs that I'd spend my $10 credit on. Yet I'd rather spend my dough on iTMS Japan instead... English/American music just seem so bland these days... but maybe that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
