    Fox Now Blocking Google TV Too

    I'm sure one can just install an app on Google TV to make the browser lie to the websites and say that it's actually a desktop PC running IE or FF.

    Apple ''iTV'' Losing 1080p Playback, Gaining Apps

    kinggraves, I seriously doubt that the next console will release for at least another year, seeing as there is no announcement, and Nintendo is still releasing first party games for the Wii. Plus, they just announced the 3DS, so releasing a new console would be foolish, and would force people to...

    Apple ''iTV'' Losing 1080p Playback, Gaining Apps

    Agnickolov is right... Apple is positioning iTV as a home gaming console with some multimedia capabilities. This could easily challenge nintendo, since the Wii is very similar to iTV spec-wise, minus the motion controls. Also, the Apple apps will be cheaper than a full $50 game; great for the...

    World’s First Pirate ISP Launching Soon

The information about piracy and decreased sales is not difficult to find, and if one still invests in...

    World’s First Pirate ISP Launching Soon

    The difference between the "Pedophile ISP" and "Pirate ISP" is that the pirates hurt millionaires and rich executives, while pedophiles hurt innocent little kids. Kind of a big difference, huh?

    Jobs: Blu-ray Will Be Beaten By Downloads

    If you watch Blu-Ray on your PC, you are in a very small minority. There are not enough people who do so to justify the extra cost of using a BD drive instead of a CD drive in Macs. They are already overpriced enough as it is.

    Supreme Court: Pirate Bay Must Remain Blocked

    Yes, it is not a good sign that many governments are moving towards internet censorship, but there will always be some way to get around it. Like an above poster mentioned, just use OpenDNS. Or even Tor.

    BitTorrent CEO: Broadband Has No Regulator

    I don't see why anyone cares about what Comcast is doing here. If you have Comcast and don't want your internet to be throttled, just switch providers.
