I don't really "get" Dragonforce? People seriously listen to them? If you're into the power metal, you should probably check out Blind Guardian, Rhapsody (of Fire) or Sonata Arctica. Anyway, tastes are subjective - and if you like it, it's not really my problem. My list: Blind Guardian...

Tough, current favourites are: Orphaned Land: The never ending way of ORwarriOR Iced Earth: The Dark Saga Sonata Arctica: Reckoning Night Blind Guardian: Nightfall in Middle Earth Pink Floyd: Dark side or Wish you were here, depends Queensrÿche: Operation: Mindcrime

Seems like Microsoft's been watching Extra Credits, or perhaps I'm noticing Gamification more now I've seen their episode about it.

The argument is no differernt to any other media. If a bookseller argued: "you can't give that book to a friend, or sell it to a second hand bookshop, I own the copyright" - they'd be laughed at in court. When you own the physical media, you can do whatever you want with it (Yes, DVDs...

I'm sorry to keep laboring the point - but I still don't get why anybody would consider homosexuality is wrong. Yes, some clever forms of reason can cause us to conclude that homosexuality is wrong (I count Kant in this clever form of reasoning, as homosexuality is something that, if acted as a...

Is, by any chance, your father's name "Jack Thompson" - if so, I'd give up.
