  • Hard News: Something up with Apple?,

    It's not purely a question about Mac or PC support. Apple have proven that by having the iTunes store/iPod etc available to both platforms.

    It's about presenting your store so any platform can access it easily and it works well.

    Amplifier is a good example.

    The Vodafone 'music store' looks like an extension of any other page on its website.
    It doesn't have a presence.

    Blink and you'd miss it.

    Peopel fail to recoginise the ease of iPod + iTunes.
    Sure there might be 'better' and 'more featured' MP3 players on tha market but is that the whole point?

    Nup.

    Can I combine this with the Word of the Year thread?
    USER-HOSTILE.

    .

    Heck yeah - what a complete consumer botch-up.
    You can't expect to run a commercial on-line music store when your first intro to customers leaves them scartching their heads and never coming back.

    vodafone NZ doesn't believe in customer choice.

    And tehn when they do advertise a decent hand set it's "out of stock" or as I was told "three weeks before they arrive" blah blah blah.

    I used to think VF was a cooler brand than Telecom.
    Well, it's a brand I'd rather have than Telecom but that's about it.
    Just another dumb-a$$ corporate playa.

    Full album downloads should not be the same price as a physical CD.

    Go figure.
    It's call packaging - without which you are receiving 'less' for you money and therefore the price should follow suit.

    Has anybody download album artwork from an iTunes store before?

    I know the cover is part of the deal but what about the actual 'innards'?
    Can you download that stuff?

  • Word of the Year 2006,

    Crikey, and he didn't even use the most over-used phrase in world history 'at the end of the day' (even more used that "praise be to Allah" or "would you like fries with that?").

    ...

    "at teh end of teh day I was pwned"

  • Word of the Year 2006,

    Given its etymology as a typo of owned, then Andre's in the right. However, as always, popular use defines the "correct" use. And the main use of that particular word is written on the interweb, so probably whatever it sounds like in your head is the correct option - until you speak it in public and get ridiculed as a n00b.

    So, how does one pronounce 'teh'?

    'the' or 'teh'?

    ;)

  • Hard News: Awesome,

    Relating this to a 20something colleague she was appropriately impressed that I could stand just 2m away from bono hisself. What I wonder now is: if U2 are the new Stones, who will be the next U2? Franz Ferdinand? Arctic Monkeys? Or some yankee emo croud?

    None of the above.

    Maybe the Chili Peppers are the only band that could quality, god forbid...
