    Re: Re: Re: Re: Even given ALL your claims, Mike, Aaron Swartz let himself in for it.

    Who are you to talk about backbone?

    You don't have one. Its clear from the way you don't put your name on anything, you coward.

    That irony is lost on NO ONE.

    Whats that saying about people who live in glass houses?

    At least he made a statement.. All you do is flail at things hoping someone will take the bait.

    Fuck you.

    I thought the slow news days were "Its friday, must be a slow news day"

    yr fucking slipping, dude.

    He clearly made his point. What your point is though, no one will EVER know.

    Re:

    Lets see, in 2008 "Royalty fees account for a majority portion of Pandora's revenues." for Pandora.. Really sounds like cornholing musicians to me..

    in 2009 after they renegotiated the royalty rates, they were still "higher in fact than any other form of radio."

    and in 2011, wait, whats this? "Royalty costs accounted for 50% of revenue"

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pandora_Radio#Royalty_developments_since_2007 Theres a convenient link for you.

    I am shocked, shocked! I say; that you weren't telling anything close to, or even a barely recognizable form of, the truth.

    Cornholing musicians my ass.

  • On the post: First Word, Last Word And Letting Our Biggest Fans Help Shape The Conversation In Our Comments

    Jeremy7600 ( profile ), 16 Aug, 2012 @ 02:08pm

    So, its not quite like mod points, because only one post can be made first word, and only one can be made last word? And its only the first person who clicks "make first word" who gets to make that choice?

    Interesting.

  • On the post: Confused Jury Says Google Infringed On Oracle's Copyright, Sorta, But Maybe Not

    Re: Isn't Google asking for a Mistrial?

    To add to that:

    "The judge has stated, pending judgment as a matter of law, that there is "zero finding of copyright liability" other than the 9 lines of code to which Oracle's damages report attributes no value. A good day for Google overall."

  • On the post: Louis CK: Connecting With Fans & Giving Them A Reason To Buy By Being Polite, Awesome & Human

    Jeremy7600 ( profile ), 13 Dec, 2011 @ 06:02pm

    Just bought it.. I like dhow easy he made it.. really simple, and i can understand the limits on downloads and streams.

    For my part, I just downloaded it, and I will be able to watch it as many times as I want.

    This is a perfect example of CWF+RTB.

    He totally gave me a reason to buy with his no-nonsense, straightforward approach, no DRM, and super easy buying process. I hate that paypal is involved, but I won't hold it against him. Its the other parts that sold me.

  • On the post: A Bunch Of RIAA Label Artists Endorse MegaUpload… As RIAA Insists It's A 'Rogue' Site

    Jeremy7600 ( profile ), 11 Dec, 2011 @ 07:38am

    Re: ummm

    Except if you look at the MegaUpload top 100, its 100% shareware, demo games, movie trailers, movie featurettes, and free apps like anti-virus and open source video players.

    I looked through every single file on the top 100 and all I saw was what appeared to be legit content.

    Please, do your homework before spouting your nonsense.

    Re:

    They have the right to pull it? On what grounds? If they aren't performances, but sound bites, what rights do they even have in the first place? Sounds like prior restraint since they were just "sound bites" according to you and not some performance.

    Are they suppressing speech? or something they own the copyrights to? How can they own copyright on opinion, or a work they didn't author?

    If I knew how to code addons for Chrome, I would already have one written to block out every one of your posts.

    God that would be nice.

    Re: two ways to avoid the problem

    Except that hard drives prices are through the roof because of the floods in Thailand.

    I don't think you can find a 1TB for under $100 these days. (there is one one pricewatch, all others start at $105)

    so your 2500 figure goes up to $5000 but not bad still.

    Either way, Content Delivery Networks already do this sort of thing.

  • On the post: Why The Supreme Court's 'Grokster' Decision Led To More, Not Less, P2P Filesharing

    Jeremy7600 ( profile ), 22 Nov, 2011 @ 10:59am

    Re:

    I still think its fair to say that the Grokster decision guided programmers going forward how to avoid being mistaken as "inducing infringement" and not exposing themselves to liability.

  • On the post: Why The Supreme Court's 'Grokster' Decision Led To More, Not Less, P2P Filesharing

    Re:

    "Grokster got into trouble because of things it did in the physical world; i.e., specifically encouraging users of the software to engage in illegal downloading."

    I read the article and that was the point that came across BEFORE reading your comment.

    As stated here: "When the US Supreme Court created its new law holding P2P providers liable where they "fostered" third party infringement, as evidenced by such things as business models, marketing and internal communications, the result was an enormous number of programmers choosing to create new applications without any of those liability attracting elements. "

    That word "marketing" might have something do with "encouraging users of the software to engage in illegal downloading," unless Grokster did it some other way?

  • On the post: The RIAA Was For Freedom Of Speech Before It Was Against It

    Jeremy7600 ( profile ), 22 Nov, 2011 @ 10:39am

    Re: This piece isn't just lame, it's legless.

    The about page specifically states "analyze and offer insight into news stories about changes in government policy, technology and legal issues that affect companies ability to innovate and grow."

    Guess what, every article ever posted on Techdirt is about exactly those things.

    Simply because it doesn't deal with whatever it is *you* think this blog is only about, doesn't mean the OWNER of the blog can't put whatever he wants on the blog.

    The above being said, government policy, technology AND legal issues are whats discussed here. Hate to break it to you, but calling someone wormy and asking them to read their own page shows just how much you fail at reading comprehension. And on top of that, you don't even make a case. You just state your opinion as if it were fact and leave it at that.

    All you need to remember for the future is government policy, technology and legal issues. If you don't have the comprehension to understand what those three things mean, remedial education may be in order.

    And again, no one is forcing you to read the articles here. The problem is between your ears, not sitting at the CEO's desk of Floor 64.
