I read it earlier today as well, and I have to agree with you on that.

I found it funny about 2 weeks ago that Steve Jobs was saying that
record labels wanted to jack up prices (they already take ~60% of a
sale!), and almost a day or two later Microsoft ended talks with them
over large licensing fees. I think that media and IT companies will
continue to butt heads in the future.
On a side note, I came across some nice linux htpc tutorials which
eventally brought me to mythtv. They look really nice, and some have
setup xbox front ends/clients (something useful if i get a new
console) Anyone have a mythtv setup? How do you like it?
