Optus Launches Its Own App Store

And yet they *still* don’t have visual voicemail. Prats.

You Didn't Think Those New Foxtel Channels Would Be Free, Did You?

I quit Foxtel the moment I got the letter informing me of the new details.

They do such a hard sell to keep you, but I no longer see the value in paying so much for so little.

Why Are Movie Studios So F%&king Stupid?

I call this DRM fail. Pirated copies at blu-ray resolution will always be available easily. DRMing the digital copy will not make the slightest shred of difference to the speed at which pirated versions are propagated. The only thing DRM does is annoy the hell out of the consumer and highlight once again just how far behind the times most media companies are.

I could not take this copy and put it on my NAS to be played back by my XBMC media centre, for example. If I buy it, I want my media available to all my devices all the time at any time. I don’t want to put up with FBI warnings about piracy when I’m a legit purchaser – pirated copies strip those out anyway.

Media companies will only begin to ‘win’ the war against piracy when they realise that their efforts to stymie it are driving people TO piracy rather than from it.
