![]() then it's time to invest in another hard drive, because from that point on you're going to be doubling up on everything.ĭude, if you've never heard of MP3 then you really have no business writing about digital music players. Or maybe you're just filled with self-loathing. If you still want to keep your WMA library (maybe because you have another media player). Well, Adrian, the Macalope would suggest that maybe the reason it's so slow is to give you time to think about the wrong you inflicted on your poor music by putting it into WMA in the first place. Oh, you can convert it, but it's "sloooow". ![]() It's Apple's fault that your music is locked in Microsoft's proprietary format. If you're existing music library is in WMA format then you have many pleasant evenings ahead managing the mind-numbingly slow import process. ITunes is also very picky about which formats it'll play. So, Professor Kingsley-Hughes, just how is iTunes monopolistic? One might as well complain about how hard it is to wear hats with giant antlers poking out of one's head.Īnyhoo, after asking his readers' opinions on whether or not iTunes is monopolistic - come now, students, there is no wrong answer! Ha-ha! - and having most of his readers say "no, not so much", Kingsley-Hughes stomps his foot and says "It is so monopolistic!" There's really no use complaining about it now. MacUser's Dan Moren has already ably taken down Kingsley-Hughes' latest but, sadly, the silly pundit beat was the beat the Macalope was born to. He's over the river of temptation, through the forest of overconfidence and head first down the rabbit hole of jackassery. If you ask the horny one, he's so far off the path of virtue he can't even see it anymore. Taking a look at the last 10 posts on his ZDNet blog, the Macalope sees that one is about Ubuntu (aka, the operating system that's fun to say), another is about software updates from a variety of vendors including Apple and the remaining eight are specifically about Apple. 'Nuff said!ĭude, what happened to that? You used to stand for something! Why do you rarely talk about anything Mac/Linux/etc. Kingsley-Hughes has sadly trodden off the path of virtue he set for himself on his PC Doctor blog where his Q&A says: Lord knows what satisfaction he sees in it, other than the increased hit counts from people linking to him and saying "Can you believe this guy?!" Boy, this whole thing with Adrian Kingsley-Hughes lobbing balls in the air only to have Apple bloggers mercilessly smashing them back down in his side of the court really doesn't make for very good tennis, does it?
