you can subscribe to a straeming service monthly with millions of tracks and then download that as your own owned content via Itunes legally? don't sound likely at all it's not much of a business model for either Spotify or Itunes! On a sort of related note, did the itunes match thing and though it took a while to upload and match my tracks I'm pretty impressed with it no worries on my music and all my compressed MP3s upgraded. Only issue I have is that it does download your selections or playlist back onto your ipad(if you are using that, so that's not really streaming) so you then have toi delete these or they sit there, but that's not the case through your PC/TV or Airplay enabled speakers.

Arsenal 1 West Brom 0 Aston Villa 1 Stoke 1 Southampton 2 Reading 1 Sunderland 0 Chelsea 2 Swansea 2 Norwich 1 Wigan 1 QPR 1 Man City 2 Man U 1 Everton 2 Spuds 2 West Ham 1 Liverpool 1 Fulham 0 Newcastle 1

I think that West Ham struggle MORE against the creative orientated teams - Swansea, Arsenal, Spuds and Wigan have been the only teams to comprehensively outclass us this season. I am happy with a draw even without Suarez

Next thing we know we'll be seeing "Man services" offered on the EDF....

I agree to an extent re sexism/racism/homophobia too. I am against these because they make no sense, intellectually, morally, emotionally and on a personal level anectdotally (ie by my experience); again, a fair amount of SOME left wingers views (Tonybee being spot on as an example) on this seems to be too often SOLELY the moral one which is horrendoulsy patronisng and actually a bit racists/sexist etc. To be honest this stretches to class where many on the 'posh' left feel terribly sorry for the poor working classes and want to either give them a few crumbs of welfare support or social engineer their lives to make them more pleasant but god forbid mixing with them or having my kids educated with them....... Where I think I disagree with you MM is with positve discrimination where I think far too many institutions have proved themselves far too entrenched not too discriminate and so I can see a case for some quotas etc

The fundamental difference as pointed out by a few on this thread is the use in the US where liberal tends to be mainly used as a default term for ?left wing? and, as Loz said, given that their left wing party sits somewhat to the right of the conservatives over here, becomes even more confusing. Nevertheless that US centric version of ?liberal?, where it is almost always used insultingly, has crept into use over here and is used in that sense too - including on here by me, frequently (yes, I sadly even used libtard once - well spotted EP - and thanks US centric poker sites! ) . In truth I consider myself proudly liberal, and my slightly derogatory use of liberal on the forum is practically always used thus, ?liberal? (not that that?s ever noticed ) and is aimed at my mainly lefty (no Ampersands), chums . In fact many lefties are pretty illiberal! And as EP says, in that sense liberal is used pejoratively to mean Guardian reader! And Dave spot on on the sanctimonious, unpleasant, arrogant (dare I say childish) often held leftish view that anyone who doesn?t hold their world view is by definition a Tory, fascist b*stard, who doesn?t care about others and is not worthy of debating with, gets right on my tits. That?s why I hate the Guardian, right there, they think they are the only ones with white cowboy hats on. I also get fed up with the continuum view of politics where you are somewhere on a straight line between left and right. I am going to remain a liberal with a slight anarchistic frame of mind who sees merits in many libertarian positions but is personally too committed to some form of the state, not too big, to embrace it, libertarianism, as an ism?.

Brilliant. Everyone stop using Amazon and send them an email explaining why and this'll get done. Don't wait for slow, inefficient, political, ineffectual govt to sort this out.

As Mick Mac's chairman can I just say that that we, the Board, are a 100% behind him and his determination to turn things round and pull out of this current barren patch.......

We the consuemer have the power as we do with banks. That's freedom in a capitalist world. THE ONLY reason Starbucxk are in discussion on this is because after the news broke they looked at their salse figures and they were materially down as consumer boycotts started to roll up. That's all. Government's/ the IR PAH.... it's us stupids. Next stop, Stop moaning about the 'bastard banks' and move your money to the co-op... Empower yourself.. ,,,not holding my breathe

Oh yes Mr Medic...that was one of my favourite days of the year until the 1990s

Have you tried Kickstart for crowdfunding?

Links to online petitions....for a start

On the obnoxious to compliant continuum of the press, I tend to fall more on the obnoxious side. The French press is pretty civilised, their leaders have traditionally got away with anything including gross corruption, outrageous patronage and borderline rape, but the bandwagon rolls on, it's all about the moment.

nope . politicians needing to be seen to be doing something= I am setting up a public enquiry= millions down the drain= a worrying curb on freedom of press. But don,t worry we're sticking it to Murdoch, sod 300 years of freedom of the press

The law can police the press, hence prosecution of Coulson et al. Really wary of regulation, really worrying trend, largely wipped up by hysteria and politics. A free press should remain that and it should act under the rules of law. Minority view no doubt.......
