    HAVE A DAY.
    <--- Quote by Former U.S. President Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt
    "And there will be strange events in the skies--signs in the sun, moon, and stars. And down here on earth the nations will be in turmoil, perplexed by the roaring seas and strange tides. The courage of many people will falter because of the fearful fate they see coming upon the earth, because the stability of the very heavens will be broken up. Then everyone will see the Son of Man arrive on the clouds with power and great glory. So when all these things begin to happen, stand straight and look up, for your salvation is near!" --Luke 21:25-28
    For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the call of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, all the Christians who have died will rise from their graves. Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and remain with him forever. --1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

      I know what an invention is. My point is iTunes is nothing new. Similar services have been around.

      It's like saying Henry Ford invented the automobile.

        They have a point though, the store did cause a large change within the music industry.
        I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

              I like the part where they say, Apple only makes [i]about[/b] ten cents on the dollar.

              Gee, one little software program bringing in $50 million a year based no $500 million in sales?

              Terrible.

              Distibution costs, sure. But he(Apple) doesn't have to print or record one single CD himself, no production costs.

              ACK!
              Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

                  The shame of it all. To think commercials shown in America would sink so low!

                    the point still remains, whether or not the acronym was correct.

                    time is like most other mainstream magazine when it comes to technology: clueless, and behind the curve.

                      My sentiments exactly (Sans the smiley, of course)
