Which makes the absence of standard streaming protocols all the more absurd

(on another note, I'd like to mention my wife's $2,300 macbook pro that's 5 months old has a dud DVD drive... another documented problem on google. thank goodness we've got applecare on this one...)

I'm on the third DVD drive on my iMac. I'm happy with my purchase and will buy another one but the idea that Mac's are more reliable is a joke.

They do not want you perusing content you did not purchase from them. Everything you've griped about is something you could enjoy without paying them their toll, so it isn't happening.

I get that. But it's absurd. I'm obviously commenting on the device vis-a-vis a consumer. Imagine if the iPod would not play MP3 files -- it would only play music you buy from iTunes. It would be absurd. Even if Apple has everyone so gaga over their ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- now that it makes good business sense, it is absurd from a consumer point of view -- even if most consumers are too gaga to realize it.
