Will NullSoft Take Over The World? You Decide.

[baafie]

It already has. Everyone that has a pc with mp3's uses winamp. Have I not warned you about NSD the last time you posted this?

[henry3k56]

Good question. It all depends on what the user wants in a audioplayer. I think it will take over the world.:) :D

[Bilbo Baggins]

I don't think it will. Because i will get there first.

[henry3k56]

Yeah, sure...:rolleyes:

[Huehuetenango]

naw, bilbo
bobcorp will
and when it does
I GET PARAGUAY
(does anyone know where that is, by the way?)

[henry3k56]

Paraguay is in South America. Also ThePortScriptsNetwork will dominate the world one webpage at a time...j/k :p :D

[darkraider]

Don't you know what will happen if Nullsoft takes over the world? It's all in that movie "Planet of the Llamas"...

Aol Anywhere is the correct term. Next AOL will have a cable channel dedicated to itself, much like MSNBC for NBC Cable.
BTW we use vB code in the forums, not HTML. You use '{B}' and '{/B}' for bold. (Just replace '{}' with '[]' Thats why your bolding turned out weird.:))

Thanks for the heads up about the vB code (every board seems to have its own special format be it UBB code or allowing or disabling HTML, etc., etc.) I didn't want to edit a two-word message. :)

A decade ago people would have been complaining more about concentration in media ownership. Now we have the web where everyone can publish anything they want ... and nobody actually reads 99.999% of what's out there (hey, AOL's actually able to acheive 'five 9s' reliability for once!)

[henry3k56]

AOL seems to own alot of the media market. When they started out, who thought that they would turn out on top of everything, next to Microsoft. So has Winamp, from a little company to a huge *(compared to other audioplayer companies) widespread world dominating audioplayer corporation.:D :) ;)

[prowsej]

Now, if only AOL, with its billions of dollars, would throw a few a bones Nullsoft's way so that they could have more than 4 people working on WiNAMP3. :)

[henry3k56]

AOL, our parent company, wants to keep the money all for themselves and their stock holders. Nullsoft needs more programmers, but AOL wants Nullsoft to be more productive, instead of Nullsoft taking it easy like it did before AOL bought them out. I think that AOL is gonna add their logo to everything they own, Nullsoft, Netscape, TimeWarner, CNN, TimeMagazine, Pogo.com, GameSpot.com, dmoz.org, mozilla.org, Compuserve, etc. So they can brand every piece of webpage space deemed as AOL's.:D :rolleyes: :) ;)

man i wish someone would unban me :(

[baafie]

You might want to cantact the mods about that.

[prowsej]

watadoo, Netscape 4.x or 6.x?

With 6.x, there's no reason to download Netscape's release since any browser with the Gecko engine will work reasonably well, and with 4.x ... well, I feel sorry for you if you have to make your sites work with *that* software ...

[henry3k56]

I've gotten the same garbage from AOL, 1000 Free Hours for 45 Days in 5 separate locations, Desktop, StartMenu, under Favorites (both in IE and in the folder on StartMenu Win98) and in a folder in StartMenu/Internet Explorer. AOL is smart/annoying to figure out how they can modify personal settings on computers so they can add their brand name on mostly everything. Netscape and AOL act alike. Netscape has mirror stuff of information like AOL, you can use your screename on mostly any website controlled by or associated with AOL TimeWarner. I would consider AOL to be a clone of MSN a clone of AOL (redundant) and they act the same. What about IE? Don't they have a favorite to Microsoft or MSN? C'mon both are trying to dominate the internet world, one company at a time.

For all Microsoft's apparent evilness, AOL seems slightly more bent on world domination. When I find myself driving an AOL car (internet -connected, of course, with Connie reading out the sat-nav instructions) it's time to get scared. When I find myself drinking MS-Starbuck's coffee in that car...

[henry3k56]

hmm, that would be very cool to drive around in a car that has company logos all over it. Hey, when I get a car I would sell my car skin area (hood, doors, trunk, and bumper area) to AOL, or one of its subsidiaries like NullSoft Winamp. I've seen cars that have logos of companies, like they would buy car space to attach logos all around it. I'll be the first to do so in my family, in my neighborhood, and at school.:D

Sell tsh.. i'd give mine.

[henry3k56]

Wouldn't it be annoying if complete strangers walked up to you in a parking lot and asked how you got your car filled with a company's logos all over it? I would prefer that people just stand stupidly gazed at the car and self promote themself to go and check the website out, or what ever the logo is selling for. Its like what the bus system does, put ads on their sides, just they look nicer on cars anyways.:D
