Don't get me started on politics. The only people that really celebrate 300 years of the Act of Union are the fat cats in Westminster by making a 2 pound commemorative coin! In Scotland the only thing that gets talked about is whether we should break from the UK or not. The UK government spends 3/4 of it's time sucking up the USA and the other 1/4 of the time sitting on the fence of EU politics. The EU just argues with Russia about gas. The USA argues with everyone while China just flexes it's muscles every so often just so that people don't forget about how they are getting stronger by the day.
The only time in the UK you ever here "Welcome to the social" is when you are pleading to a guy behind a protective screen not to stop your disabled, unemployment or incapacity benefit.
I am not really that exited about the Zune. I don't ask much in an "MP3 player". All I ask it it plays MP3s, it is easy to use, has as much storage as possible and a bit of style.
I think it's sad that people argue over whose DRM is "better" or "fairer". DRM is the biggest heap of crap in the tech world today. It makes me sick how much companies profit from blind comsumers who purchase this crap. When I buy a CD I can play it in my car, CD player, xbox, playstation, computer and anything else that can play audio CDs. When I rip it to my PC and transfer it to my MP3 player the law of the land frowns apon me and record companies go nuts. All it boils down to is greed. Yeh I agree the companies need to protect thier artists and profits but DRM is the wrong way to do it. Shutting down file sharing programs is and suing the people that make these programs instead of 12 year old kids is the way to discourage these programs and sites.
That is why I still buy the "dinosaur" CDs for more common artists and MP3s from independent artists and small lables. Yeh I know people are going to pick apart what I just said and argue against me but that is what a "democracy" and freedom of speech is all about.
The Triumph proved to be one of the better looking and performing pre-paid handsets we'd had the pleasure of holding in our sweaty mitts, but we had one major hangup: the name.
