all these articles defending the TSA tell us one thing: You can see exactly who is in bed with the government, and boy is it a lot of big media isn't it?
yup. change is hard, but they are bleeding out money faster every day. at the rate they are going nobody (even ignorant folk) will want to associate with the MPAA/RIAA in 5 years.
there's nothing to say for that people's attention overall is affected by whether or not people have cellphones or other devices with them, that, you know, can tweet/facebook/blog.
this is probably about publicity rights or something along the lines of "those gosh darn people who can record what I say and make $$ off it" even if it doesn't always work that way.
I bet Griggs right now is reevaluating any employment options, because I can't forsee Griggs getting herself a job anywhere involved in her current field, especially with all of this publicized.

netflix's streaming is just pretty straightforward to use.
however, it's also done mostly through silverlight, which is it's own amusing (and soon to be unsupported) issue.
All netflix is/was, is a legal alternative to simply going out and torrenting the movies. A poor alternative, but one that's not too bad. It's kinda like steam gaming. It's retarded, fails, and all that, but it's the "best of the worst" as humorous as that sounds.
