iTunes HD rentals: price discrimination against men

Bandwidth. It has to be the reason.

Geesh. Is this the only way you can get attention? Speak only for yourself and not all women if you are going to write dribble for a tech website. Write for "Ugly-are-we-so-we-don't-like-HD"
Signed, Super Hot even in the morning lying next to your guy because he's tired of a Standard romance.
And stop wasting my TIME!

I loved your post Erica.

People should harden the fuck up. Especially the Swede, having lived in Sweden for over a year, i can tell you, they just don't understand our humour. And as for sexual equality in Sweden, what a joke.

Sorry, but this post was basically not funny. I've heard funny jokes based on gender before and this was just based on gender - the first part was absent. If you want funny jokes based on gender (and a few other social groups) try Dylan Moran's latest DVD (I think it may be on YouTube) - that's actually got humour in it.

When will ES stop trying to write comedy? She can't do it, period. It takes a certain type of writer to be funny in print, TUAW already has a couple, and ES isn't one of them.

When you go to the cinema, and pay for the premier screens, you get a bigger screen, nicer chairs and all, but you don't go complaining to the projectionist that your film didn't come with more pixels! The point here is that HD has failed because people have already payed the HD tax on the equipment, they then should have access to those extra pixels at no extra cost, because it's not a different "version" of the film, it's not a different cut - it's simply the data that matches their equipment.

The industry is treating HD as something that is more vaulable because it has more pixels, which is entirely the wrong way of looking at it. Customers want bigger screen sizes, and are happy to pay for that, but they don't care about more pixels, because most either can't see the difference, or don't have their equipment and cables configured correctly to even display HD. They think HD, means "big-screen".

HD = Huge Dong

Right? Right?

Erica, I usually like your articles. But I'm another wife who dragged her husband to accept HDTV, I got the IPhone, I'm the one who edits on FCP.

I choose and install all of our electronics.

if ever there was a reason why i skip over erica's posts, this is it.

"im just a girl"

this article has to be a joke just like the macbook air going for $3,000+.
