Dolphins... the new Unicorns in chiptune artist names?

And clearly the correct music would have been EAT_RABBIT

Recently I've also developed a rather unhealthy addiction to yuri anime *hides*

Haha yeah, he comes around very much like the anti-christ in that summary. It was just a matter of time though until the gaming biz caught on. Having grown up with cheap games you actually owned after you bought them (and not just purchased a license to use them), I already thought the idea of having to pay continously for a game (MMORPGs) was perverse.

The amount of control companies exercise over their products these days is insane. My favourite comparison is what would have happened if books were a recently invented medium:

- You purchase the right to read the book, but it is still owned by the publisher. They can take the book from you anytime they like

- You only get half the book. If you want to read, call the publisher, and they'll lend you the missing pages for your reading session. The publisher can stop this service if they think it has been long enough, and your book will be incomplete forever if they do.

- Only you are allowed to read the book. If you lend it to someone, copy pages or make notes from it, you're criminal scum

- You're only allowed to read your book in one room. Send a picture of your room to the publisher. If you change your furniture, be sure to send an update, because you won't be able to read your book anymore. By grace of the publisher you can do this three times, but then you have to call them and explain why you change your room so often.

- The publisher reserves the right to deny you to read if they see certain other books in your shelf they don't like.

- Oh, and please provide your full name and address to the publisher.

Enjoy!

Good sir, we were discussing the finer things in life!
