About this site

For six years, the Internet Nexus served as my technology blog, but I've since started blogging at the SuperSite Blog instead. If you're looking for the blog, please head there. --Paul

iTunes Bad, WMA Good

Extreme Tech, in a bit of Paul copying: "Well, guys, here's your comeuppance. Here's where I praise a Microsoft solution, slam the open stuff, and dis Apple, all at the same time. Oh, the mail I'm going to get ... I fully expect Microsoft to whip its media playback software into shape with a better interface and a full built-in online music store. IPod sales and iTunes usage will continue to grow but the market will grow even faster, causing their actual market share to shrink. When that happens, and Apple's products become entirely marginalized, I don't want to be stuck with a whole bunch of 99-cent songs encoded with AAC and locked with FairPlay DRM."
