Yet people can't wait to jump to ios which does the same and worse. Google cutting out windows platform from their app development which seems like its more intentions than just cost cutting. Microsoft is doing everything it can these days and all people do is talk smack about their past.

VLC hasn't done much to improve picture quality. An mpc and madvr combination easily trumps it and yet you want to donate to this cookie cutter program to only maintain but not make it better? MPC was on the verge of being stopped of development until few people made the effort to volunteer and contribute to code.

I dont understand, if he didn't do anything illegal what is the problem? It only brings light on the laws that made it happen right?

I don't think this is how businesses work. Its like trying to get a teacher to not teach a certain lesson because you don't want to learn it. Aren't they paying you to do a job? Not the other way around. If you have problems adapting they might consider someone else who'd do your job instead, is it worth putting your career at risk because youre not comfortable with change?

the police are involved because they have been asked to be involved. Do you think police only act on their own all the time? They provide a service and this one involves people violating law

Siri definitely shows bing results. I'm not sure Microsoft is paying for that

Its a pay per view for the broadcasters in the form of subscriptions. While I don't support this kind of activity I can see the damages done to a business if they are robbed of their audience. Broadcasters pay to have the show on their channel, why should they not be bothered when they are about to lose potential numbers because people have already seen the show before they air it? Viewers count is very important in this business.

actually that wouldn't be a bad idea considering they get $ worth of money from our data. That way people join the service too and they can mine more.
