Nice to know that Apple was so integral in the making of the Lord of the Rings. Apple is so important to the movie studio, that when they released the extended versions on Dvd, they state ZERO support for Macs in the Dvd-rom features.

Gee, makes me feel warm and mushy when we Mac users get f***ed.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

They covered the iPod story in the Two Towers Extended Edition.

Boy, am I chagrined.

Not really.

Now I realize that Apple has got a small market share, but for a computer that supposedly enjoys a lot of "professional" support in the film industry, it sure seems to be ignored by studios on the consumer level.

Still bitter.

For the small market share, it gets a TON of professional support.

DVD-ROM isn't all that popular...

I admit that dvd-rom features suck. I'm bitter about that too.

However, you won't dissuade me. I've worked up a perfectly good bout of bitterness here, and all you non-bitter bastards aren't going to change that!

I'm now bitter about you people trying to rob me of my contrived bitterness. Now I'm extra-extra-bitter.

Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
