dianec42I don't normally read anything by Tech Columnist Bill Thompson. Today I was reminded of why:
The rootkit of all evil?
RANT ON
I get as far as "... the licence agreement on the CDs were explicit about what was being installed ..." No, you moron, the license agreement WAS.
Then I get to "If you have got a Mac or a Linux box then you can play and even copy you disc happily, because the real WAV files that a CD player uses are there on the disc."
Audio CDs do not use WAV files! What the hell is wrong with you people?!?! (And that was a straight copy-and-paste. The person who allowed "you disc" through needs to be fed to angry bears.)
RANT OFF
If this article has a point, I will never know what it is. I cannot read any more of this. (Yay! There's work to do!!)
