Cook has not performed well the last year. That's a fact.

Isn't 'fact' meant to be in all caps, otherwise how can we know it really is a fact?

I found and enjoyed and learned a lot from Ishkur's many years ago. I've always enjoyed electronic music even though I'm not sure where the influence came from since I grew up on classic rock and country!

Same for me, never interested me until I heard Aphex Twin - Window Licker however I have since become completely smitten by The Orb's more subtle and trippy electronica. Their most recent album Mirrorball, is astounding, subtle and brilliant . Unfortunately some of the best Orb remix stuff is not available on Apple Music, which is the type of thing that is wrong with Apple Music.

As soon as I saw 808 I knew it would be about the Roland. I never used one but I lusted after one after buying a DR550. If a documentary like this interests you then you most certainly enjoy a wade through Ishkur's guide to electronic music. http://techno.org/electronic-music-guide/ unfortunately it's in Flash but worth installing and uninstalling just to see it.

It never rains but it pours.

What I find utterly, madly, ludicrous is that Samsung could not think of anything better, they tried various crazy ideas (as was seen in the trial) but it was completely beyond their ability. Now apple has decided they have a better solution, a simple single button press, so that means that one of the possible solutions that Samsung couldn't come up with was er pressing a button. If nothing else this proves that Samsung is so fixated on copying as many little details as possible that it is simply unable to see other obvious solution that are right in front of it's metaphorical nose.

Just in case there was anyone within Apple questioning their conservative approach to batteries, I'm sure this will be a big fillip for the softly softly approach.
