Rich's Tuesday Rant

Before I start this let me just say I like the new Coldplay stuff because there are some Coldplay ass suckers that will hammer me but ....

The word is in ..Fuck You Coldplay !

In the days of Itunes & Ipods it seems that everyone has these 2 things and music from your computer to your Ipod is the new wave of the future . Itunes is supposed to be a really good legal way to get a very wide variety of music for you Ipod and what some people do is get music from other places and put it in there Itunes folder for easy DL onto their Ipod ...following so far ?

Well What most people like to do is go out and get the latest cd , ala Coldplay's newest , DL it into there computer and listen to it in their Ipods. Well it seems Coldplay has put something in their CD that wont allow this to happen and all the time without putting any kind of warning label on the CD .So all those Ipod users are going to go on Itunes or somewhere else and pay twice If they want to hear the latest stuff. I guess Foo Fighters are doing the same thing but it still should have a warning giving the consumers the heads up on whether they choose to buy it or not .

Now I know there are probably some kinds of programs that could break that but there is only a small percentage of people that will be able to figure out how to so it and the rest of the shmoes will be stuck with a cd and they dont even own a cd walkman ...why ?

Coldplay has the "Fair Trade" stickers all over at their live shows but I guess the greed has caught up with them , maybe it's the baby clothes have gotten to expensive. I dont mind you fighting privacy but at least let the people know you are doing it !

Ok , time to burn ....

The link leads to a video demonstrating some of the, uh, options in pretty graphic detail.
