Apple, FLAC, and NIH
2004-04-29
Apple is innovating again. This time they’ve decided to create a lossless
audio format. $DEITY forbid that they should use an existing free format, like
FLAC. Shit like this just fragments
the multimedia market. This is not good for consumers. Of course,
Apple probably needed a format that would support their Digital Restrictions
Management.
This paragraph is for all the people who say that Apple is being a “good
open source citizen”. Apple has caused more harm in the way of proprietary
multimedia formats than Microsoft and Real put together.
I would like to take this opportunity to ask the following question of Apple:
What the fuck is wrong with you?

The person responsible for
this
image should be flogged. That’s not Flash Gordon. That’s Captain
Torch. Sheesh, it’s like I’m talking to a brick wall here.

That is all.

I need to convince shaunm to let me port yelp :)”
Let you? Yeah, OK. I’ll let you.
