iTunes Hits 5 Billion Downloads, I'm Still Stealing Music And Still Cannot Care
Big surprise, an Apple product is doing well. This is me spinning my index finger around in a circle with a sarcastically bemused expression on my face.
iTunes blasted past the 5 billion mark today, beating out all competitors and making it the largest music retailer in the Universe—nay! in the HISTORY OF TIME. Yes, Steve Jobs and his army of attractive easy-to-use programs and devices are storming through our streets like the Celtics parade currently clogging the arteries of Boston, slaying people left and right, all on their way to Nirvana.
Or something. Who cares?
Coming as an actual surprise is the figure that 50,000 movies are downloaded and/or rented via iTunes per day. Really? That many people want to watch movies on dinky iPods and computer screens? Or did people actually buy Apple TV? And why?
I use iTunes. I have an iPod. I have a MacBook. But I don't understand why anybody would give a flying shit whether or not Apple the company does well, unless, of course, you're a stockholder, in which case, clap clap clap.
Ooooh! 5 billion downloads! Wowwie. Now I can finally get gay married.

Wow, bitter, party of one?

It must be that time of month.
Yeah that seemed a bit extreme...
I'm an Apple stockholder...
That's all you got? Bitter? C'mon kids. Defend your company!
Just wait. Five white-robed Apple Acolytes (or iColytes) will appear before you one evening.
They will show you the gently-diffused white light of truth, and you will drink an organically-grown potion of antioxidants and pure evil. Think Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
And the last words you'll ever speak, my dear madman, shall be "I want a Newton, please."
Defend 'my' company?
They're not my company. I've just got an iPod cause it's the best DAP on the market. And I'm a pirate through and through, yar.
But just because I'm not bitter doesn't make me an Apple fan.
Queeny and bitchy...I guess you like that better than "bitter?"
This is only the 2nd article I've read by NeonMadman...and I think I'll be skipping future ones. They may contain some legitimate content, but the delivery, while probably intended to be funny, just comes across like a 16 year old saying "I'm here, I'm queer, mom & dad won't buy me an iPhone!"

Yikes...sorry about the triple post! I must be uber-cool, now! (Stupid internets!)
