Random Thoughts for Today

I wonder about marketing hype.

VOIP? It sounds nice, but the catch is sometimes hidden. What? I need to have power to my DSL or cable modem to use the service? What? I need to work out a backup phone alternative in case this happens? No thanks.

Online music services. What? So I pay you money each month so that I can listen to my favorite music? I can take it anywhere I want? Hmmm, they've had something like that for quite a while now...its called a Radio. So I can own the music, but I can't make copies, and it expires after a month? Didn't you say it was "My" Music?
