Turns out Apple’s recent cease and desist campaign has found no favor… from the top down!

I hate people who pose as interested in saving souls but act like that task is completed and folks care about their odd political beliefs. Save the unsaved and leave those worldly concerns to the world.
Apple bashing was an old and tired pursuit in the late 80s and, at best, is whiny sour grapes.
If you ever claim this to be even a commonly occuring opinion among podcasters you are breaking one of the BIG TEN.
…and GOD really did say that!
Sense of humor, anyone???
First of all — I’m not sure who Mister Lloyd refers to in the first paragraph of his comment, but I’m not interested in saving anything I don’t think exists in the first place… and so the rest doesn’t apply.
Secondly, regarding Mister Lloyd’s second paragraph — When Apple tries to trademark the word “pod” and goes after anyone who uses the word in relation to podcasting, I’d say being publicly critical of their practices is absolutely necessary and very relevant.
Third, if you refer to the Yahoo! Podcaster Group mailing list, where a couple thousand podcasters are members, I think you’ll find that negative reaction to Apple on this issue is pretty widespread and very passionate.
Finally, regarding what was or was not said by mythological figures… the tongue-in-cheek fake marquee in my post has just as much validity as any other alleged quotes.
Thanks for the laugh! Some of us do have a sense of humor, warped though it may be.
Brilliant. Re-blogged.
Thanks for the re-blog, Faux Press! You’ve got an interesting site, there! I’ll be digging deeper soon.
Happy to make you laugh, Maggie!
I thought it was hilarious and want to thank you for posting it for all of us to enjoy.
