I meant more in the mold of Maxwell’s Silver Hammer.

So… crack everyone open and see what’s inside. Gotcha.

The best practice is to laugh in the face of copywrong and hold up a middle finger to the revenue class.

Did the CP/M or PC-DOS guys agree to this?

Both. Use YT & Spotify as discovery engines (along with Pandora, Jango, and Soma FM), but download your favorite tracks and self-host.

I don’t think I’ve turned a TV onto anything live in about 3 years.

Candy Crush, casual games, and their ads don’t exist in gaming magazines sold wrapped in plastic bags. The main demographic for game sales is casual players. The main demographic for the ads is teenage boys (or basement dwelling manchildren). They’re different markets.

I don’t entirely disagree. But the thing about tradition is, it’s done the same way every time. I’m more likely to trust the person who has done a thing their whole life and learned from their parents rather than someone who started last week.

But I’d prefer either of them over mass-produced versions.
