Incompetents R Us - iTunes

[wraithfodder]

In the latest screwup with Stargate Atlantis (the first being 'screener copies' of "Adrift" and "Lifeline" getting leaked out), now iTunes (aieee!) released "Doppelganger" instead of "Adrift." While a number of fans got their hands on it, the vast majority can't see it (iTunes apparently yanked it after probably informed by MGM - I'd love to have heard that phone conversation, or email (all in caps, I'm sure). I can sure see why NBC doesn't want anything to with iTunes as heck, they'd probably release HEROES out of order! ;) NBC was sooo right to sever ties with iTunes as this could conceivably harm SGA ratings for this episode. I mean, why watch it if you've got it on download? Sigh.

So, now must avoid certain forumsthreads until October 19th as some folk give away too much even in what they consider to be 'vague' comments. Sigh.

I think the reason TiVo is cornering the DVR market at the big box stores is that a very large % of people who use a DVR use a non-Tivo box that's supplied by their cable or satellite company for a negligible fee. The current generation of cable company boxes seem to have all the features an average user would need. The people who don't take the boxes offered by their provider are therefore mostly the people who are specifically looking for a Tivo.

Most likely.
