Welcome to the new America, Home of the ... well, Home of the $99.99 per month, plus tax, after rebate, for a limited time only Special! Restrictions apply, services vary by location, bla bla bla....
"... We think that going forward, you're going to continue to have free broadcast stuff on Hulu, and cable stuff on TV Everywhere."

So they're gonna screw the pooch! I don't use hulu for over the air "free broadcast" stuff, I use it for SciFi, USA, etc. programs I don't get on cable, because I don't have cable. If this content is off of hulu, then I guess I am, too.

What is this “TV Everywhere?” [http://newteevee.com/2009/06/23/what-you-need-to-know-about-tv-everywhere/]

" TV Everywhere is an authentication system whereby certain premium content (TV shows, movies, etc.) are available online — but only if you can prove (or “authenticate”) that you have a subscription to a multiservice operator (e.g. cable, satellite, telco TV)."

This sucks!

Through NBC/U, Comcast would get a cut of Hulu, and that would be a wrap on internet video... unless, of course, you get the super secrete, extra deluxe, ultra premium tier (only 199/mo) added to your 599/mo secrete deluxe premium tier... for a limited time only..

Frack cablecos!!!!!
soo... basically, Zune 4.0 is today where Amazon unBox was in MCE2005.

nice

... oh yeah, Amazon would add the folder to Videos for you... no hunting
Has anyone gone to ceton site? http://www.cetoncorp.com/ProductsCTN9100.php

For the 9100, 9110 and 9120, I noticed this little bit: "Windows and Linux Drivers with extensive API documentation."

WTF! Linux!?!
wow... that was even less fun then a phil schiller keynote
I clicked on the photo and all I could see was a big green garbage truck
forgot to tie the points together, and no editing here...

Actually... radio is pretty much done. Where once apon a time a local radio station would have a local staff and local programing and news, they have pretty much by now fired most local staff and programming, leaving little more than ISDN lines and satellite drops to pick up nationally syndicated programming http://www.radiodiversity.com/localbroadcasting.html .

The reason the local stations are dropping local content is not because everybody loves Rush, but because ther is pretty much nothing they can put on locally for a price they can make money at. DJ's are expensive, news is pricey, and aside from drivetime, no one is listening.

Face it... unless you are stuck in traffic, hanging out behind the gym having a smoke or a talk radio wing nut, you not listening to radio anymore... and good riddance. If I ever again hear one more refi commercial or legal solicitation or medical miracle announcement it will be to soon.

Thank God/Jobs? for iPods
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am looking for a device that will stream sound from one source to several recipients. For example, I want to stream sound from my TV or stereo to my phone or MP3 player that has radio and Bluetooth capabilities. I have looked into radio transmitters and they seem like a decent choice, but I can't find one that uses external power (USB or from the plug) and I would want one with a transmit range of around 50 meters. Thanks!"
