Now.. I've just bought my first ipod in 4 years and I've noticed something that I'm sure other people have too..
Captain Jack Sparrow on the box cover of an Ipod ...
Well I guess it's not a Zune so maybe Universal was right...

But that's content they sell. Not content they pay rights to.

Chalk that up to one more IT Marketing Faux-pas..
Like..
The Windows 95 ad playing the Rolling Stones "Start me up" and stopping short of "You make a grown man cry"...
and just to show I'm not Biased...
The Black Eyed peas "Lets get retarded" song (changed to "Lets get it Started..") on the Flat panel iMac ad...

Arrrrrrr! You can buy Pirates of the Caribbean:The Curse of the Black Pearl from ITMS to play on a video iPod. What's the confusion here? I'm really, REALLY lost on that...
Oh!!! You're referring to "pirating music"!!! Yeah.... Except that the "pirate" pictured is one of the most heavily copyright-protected icons around. The "joke" fizzled for me before it started. Sorry to be a wet blanket.

Ah. So it wasn't a joke I wasn't getting, there just never was one. Good to know.
I guess I was just in wet blanket mode, as well.
