Quite possibly Austin, Texas is outside the United States. We could concievably bomb the living daylights out of them for such hubris.

Re: News channel 8 in Austin reports iTunes WIN not available

Damn you Apple for lying to us.  What the hell program do you guys have on your website and why did you hold that press conference to lie about it?  Better yet what is this shat program that I am currently using at work?

Re: News channel 8 in Austin reports iTunes WIN not available

Wow... iTunes Music Store isn't available on a Windows-based PC?

Well then, what the heck is this:

http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/

...that I've put on my PC? Maybe the next thing you'll tell me is that I'm actually running Mac OS X on my Gateway, North Dakota isn't a state and that I need duct tape to fight biological war.

If you make such a blatant error as this, one wonders how much you guys screw up on those biased opinion portions of your other stories?

Re: News channel 8 in Austin reports iTunes WIN not available

My feedback:

I hate to break it to you, but iTunes IS available for Windows.  Next time, please at least go to the website of the product you are reporting on so you can at least pick up the most superficial information you seem to disregard otherwise.

smurf them.

[conspiracy troll switch on]Sometimes I think North Dakota is a figment of everyone's imagination. That it's not really a populated state but actually a no man's land where ze aliens can have all the cows they can mutilate. Also this could be because the US claims 50 states so that it isn't the number of presumed number of Christ (49), since GB is something of an anti-Christ and 5 + 0 = 5! The number of death! OMFOMFOMFOMFOFMOFMFOFMOMFOFMG![/end conspiracy troll switch]

I need duct tape to fight biological war

Everyone could use duct tape. Marilyn Manson could use duct tape to keep his member attached. J.Lo could use duct tape for her mouth AND chest. I could go on, but my brain isn't working.

Well, for a while there, the State's Tourism Slogan was, "Texas.  It's like a whole 'nother country."

I escaped that whole 'nother country several years ago, so I don't know if they are still using that slogan.


It's all about the Hamiltons, baby.

Re: News channel 8 in Austin reports iTunes WIN not available

That articles seems like it was written a couple of months ago... 200,000 songs in the iTMS? Um, it's over 400,000 now. Wait a minute... the iTMS had 200,000 songs when it opened! They're 6 and half months behind.  hmm

I hate that "redneck" image smurf, but don't make it worse than it is. I would wager the majority of us do not own cowboy hats or boots. Did we not learn the moral of this post, research first, write story after...

Re: News channel 8 in Austin reports iTunes WIN not available

In order to avoid idiots and arguments, anytime I get a "You use an Apple, Apple sucks" I shoot back with a "Yeah I know" then I don't have to speak to sub-humans, and we don't get any unworthy users.
