That would be great if they put up some old stuff for free too!
Finally...competition...
We're gonna get great competitive prices or we're gonna get price fixing...can't wait to find out which new way the RIAA and MPAA will devise to fleece us suckers off our hard-earned dollars.
Wow, technology is really taking us places.....
The next step in the digital. An almost obvious one considering what Itunes did with serials and video.google.com
the question I always ask with technology is where is it all going to end.
cheers
Hasan: I agree!
Nth Dimension: I can hear them now: "Let the fleecing begin." LOL Isn't competition great? :-)
Dr. Deb and True Blue Guy: It makes me wonder if we'll ever get to the "final frontier" of technology. Somehow, I think not.
