Label Exec: Hey, we made hundreds of millions of dollars off your hit album, "Inuit Life"
Inuit: Sweet, can I have my cut?
Label Exec: No, that's our money.
Inuit: Well I'll just download the songs for myself.
Label Exec: That'll be 1,920,000 bucks.
This is pretty fail for a hack dude, you might have tried something other than just one crappy post filled with you giggling and spitting all over yourself and your PC (because I'm sure that's how you laugh)
I heard a similar story about a 100% effective roach killer. What it included was two blocks of wood, and customers were instructed to put the roach on block A and hit it with block B.
My thoughts exactly. I'm not a doctor, but I figure that it's pretty difficult to make a good system 10% better, or else Netflix wouldn't put up a giant prize to do it.
Wait, so they had a bunch of volunteers sift through enormous amounts of documents to make something useful, for free? I'm no scientist, but that sure sounds to me like crowdsourcing. Maybe you could enlighten me to the differences?
Hey, that's an insightful way of complementing those posters above you, and it's so kind of you to post a link in your message, too. I'll be sure to click on that and buy things.
