  • Hard News: The Big Roundup,

    It never ceases to amaze me - now there's a big "hoohaa" about videos of the BDO from cellphones being posted on YouTube. For christ's sake! People aren't about to stop buying DVD's or stop going to concerts just because they can watch a shaky, lo res, 60 second slipwith barely has any sound other than two yobbos on either side of the camera man yelling at the tops of their voices. Big deal. Forget about it and move on.

    People are having to pay up to $300 for a ticket to go to the concert in the first place - haven't we got bigger problems to solve? For $300 I'd expect to take something more than a bruise and tinnitus home with me.

  • Hard News: Remember where you heard it…,

    I think one of the first independent, hands on reviews I've read. Rather good.

  • TVNZ Ondemand: Windows Media Player only,

    I'm still baffled as to why we are months and months behind television releases these days.... With the digital age, why has television not taken on what movies and music now do - the big releases are world wide releases. I've already seen the first series of Heroes because if I waited to watch it here, I'd have ruined it for myself by reading something on the internet like I ended up doing with Lost. If I watch it in time with the states, you get to enjoy the websites and forums with the rest of the world - something they should want me to be doing given the amount of money they pour into them - PLUS the downloaded ones are high def too! bonus. I'm not saying every show needs to be like this but why not the big ones? It just seems like such a waste otherwise.

  • What do you want them to play at your funeral?,

    Radiohead - Exit Music (For A Film)...

    It's not so much the lyrics but the feeling that the song evokes.
