want to get rewarded for sharing INEDEPENDENT music?
Get a real player. A real player that can connect to virtually any computer (and virtually any operating system) and can share its files plainly - as data files. No freaking iTunes. No freaking Zune software. No RIAA-approved activities. No software needed at all. It's called USB Mass Storage.
Zune hasn't got it. Apple has only got it for data files, and NOT for playable audio on the device (which is encrypted). Sony's audio is encrypted on the device, too. Makes you wonder why, eh?
Now get your virtually ignored Cowon or Sandisk or device and copy said files on your friend's computer. Grab some tracks from your friend, too, while you're at it. It's a two-way street.
Now get thanked. And of course, you have more taste than to listen to what RIAA member companies are throwing at you, right? And more sense than to buy heavily restricted players, right?
Or do you need to be force-fed lifeless music via the Zune marketplace?
The new FiOS HD DVR, arguably the biggest update since Verizon released a DVR, thanks to its external storage support, enhanced multi-room functionality and slick new 16x9 HD user interface.
