The status is NOT quo.

Jessica, I've heard that from a few other people, too. Drew said he and Tom tried to replicate the problem and couldn't.

That is pretty sweet. Makes Apple seem less whiny.

That's all well and good, but until the Consumer Reports thing came out, weren't they denying that the signal was affected at all? Now their excuse is "everyone does it"? Please.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

When were they denying it? Citation please. They never denied it.

They never denied it.

They denied that it actually affected the signal as much as people said--it was an issue that you shouldn't have been seeing that many bars of signal to start with!! Yeah, RIGHT.

Our wings are not tired

It has been mishandled, that is certain, but it's also been blown out of proportion.

I've watched the iPhone 4 more than once next to my 3G, and even with the signal attenuation issues, it outperforms my 3G reception.

What meara said. Sorry if I exaggerated.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

So, I bought audionotes for a class from iTunes. The class is done and I want to pass along the audionotes to someone else and delete them from my computer.

Problems: 1) I cannot burn mp3 discs of iTunes files 2) All of the files are too long to burn to a CD.

Any ideas?

Do the files have DRM? If not, just drag & drop them onto a flash drive.
