Not necessarily a bad thing if they can make the prices lower, if most people end up buying cheaper but adequate hardware developers will have an incentive to make their games work with that hardware. We have seen what games with NVidia partnerships ended up with in terms of bugs with ATI GPUs but aren't those problems less severe now?

Lossy to lossless is fine it's just a waste of space.

If this holds up in court and becomes precedent it will create a lot of people with nothing left to lose with a lot of grudges against these companies. I can't say I would have any sympathy if executives became targets for heinous acts of violence stemming from such an injustice.

The tow bar is attached diagonally on the opposite side and it works quite well.

It's consistent if they depend on copyright law to make money.

Glad you didn't end up a police murder statistic. Is self-defense against cops at your home a thing in your jurisdiction? I can't tell if they are always this stupid in the US only because in most places people aren't allowed to defend themselves.
