What's wrong with media and other updates.

Well, In case you didn't hear, Southpark has covered the World of Warcraft world. Laura and I would ordinarily not go anywhere near Southpark, but for this one I think we would sit and watch it. Now note, I will NOT pay 30 bucks to see, maybe 2-5 bucks to download it and watch would be fine. And while I don't even know when it came on or get the correct channels, I think a number of the millions of players would pay some to see it. As it is, the only way I know to watch it is some pirated copy in France which I won't touch. So there it is, at 2-5 bucks times a couple million the creators of South Park would be doing allright off of one show plus they would possibly win some followers. Instead they get nothing because media is behind the times.

Plus there should not only be the ability to buy a single episode for that much, but what about an entire season online with a single episode released every week. There could even be a community forum set online and a feedback forums so creators could really dig into how people react to their content. But it won't happen unless some new form of media does it to fight with the big dogs. Hey there's an idea.....

Other than that, Samsung let me down. Their old printer system used to interact with CUPS fairly seemlessly, now they seem to have some other setup they use. I ended up installing the Slix drivers the last time I went to set it up as the old CD drivers I had don't seem to be compatible with the newest version of CUPS in Gentoo and the newer drivers I didn't like. So this week sometime I'll have to package an ebuild of it which I couldn't find anywhere.
