Netflix shows off new and improved “watch now” – Download Squad

Netflix is showing off a new version of their browser-based “watch now” feature at the Mix ’07 conference in Las Vegas. By building the new feature with Microsoft Silverlight, Netflix has expanded the feature set, as well as building compatibility for alternate browser like Firefox, and operating systems like Mac OS X.

I’ll have to try it again, the first attempt was ok, but if they keep updating hopefully they’ll finally make it awsome

Digg the Blog – Stands Up

and Download Squad gives you the info, all I got to say is ARRRRRRRRRRRR! P-)

HD-DVD key fiasco is an example of 21st century digital revolt – Download Squad

Cory Doctorow’s class blog for his USC course, “Pwned: How everyone on campus is a copyright criminal” was served a DMCA takedown notice and, on the advice of counsel, removed the offending digits. They were posted to Wikipedia, then removed and locked from reposting. Then the diggstorm came. A slew of digg stories containing the forbidden digits have been posted, made the front page and been removed, only to start again.

also ZDNet gives some more info:

AACS licensing authority censors Cory Doctorow’s class blog – ZDNet.com

I just don’t get it.  A link is a link and trying to censor who links to what is not going to work.  The AACS seems to want to control who links to the Doom 9 forum post relating to the AACS cracking attempts because all that’s left for AACS is to try to limit people knowing how ineffective AACS is becoming.

Now there’s evidence to back my theory. According to recent research, people with high testosterone (let’s call them assholes) literally get pleasure from making other people unhappy.

…

My point is that I shouldn’t waste my time complaining about the war in Iraq. All I need to do is increase my levels of testosterone until I can enjoy the unhappiness of others.

I was planning to mark the fourth anniversary of the start of the war by looking back at some of the more remarkable statements pundits made at the time. But I’m a weekly cartoonist, and this month I just had too many other ideas clamoring for my limited space, so this one stayed on the back burner and never ended up running. So here’s a small exclusive for the HuffPo.
