Game DRM with Internet connection

Alright so rant.
There are a lot of people who are just oblivious to the needs of NOT HAVING INTERNET.
Everybody assumes that just because you own a PC. You are always connected to the internet.

I just recently moved my computer downstairs to connect to the HDTV. And until we set up our access point downstairs. I do not have internet for it as it gets really slow and unstable due to the shielding in the basement.
GASP! I cannot play due to the requirement of internet connection in order to play.

Some people agree with the idea that laptops are constantly on the move so they do not have internet but then go on about how PC's are always connected. What if your internet service is down. A week ago, we had a giant windstorm and Shaw was out for a few hours; what if that was a few days.

Again, some other problems will be LAN parties, (for those that are unfamiliar with the term. It is where people bring their computers to someplace and play games locally.) What if it happens to be a true LAN with just a router that has no internet connected between the computers. You'd have problems.

Internet DRM is not the way to go. They will just have to bite and hope for the best of people to buy the games when they can. It doesn't help that companies like Activision plan on increasing video game prices.
I mean, I am sure plenty of you play MMO's. Which obviously are dependent on an internet connection and then anger spews when you lost internet connection due to some hiccup on the router.

*BAM* Disconnection. Good Game. Have a nice day.

Radio is dead again. and AE + extras

Router is acting up.
Radio is causing some instabilities.

Formaly Shroker's Corner is now Back!

Alas. it has been a while since my net radio was awaken from its slumber.


Ghost's Corner (Formally Shroker's Corner and some other name I had when I was younger)
Is now back alive!.
So!. The details; very picky people we all are.
An internet radio is a live-stream from a server (usually a media player) that streams music or chat host from it's source.
The title for this link is (as many people will notice) based off Portal! Companion Cube!
So I decided to name it Companion Radio Ghost!
Sounds a bit corny I might change this later on but ah well!. We will see.
In the mean time.


Ghost's Corner is a live stream (Sorry for the mishaps that can happen while listening and the sudden music skipping. Please email me asap of the song title you want to go back or drop a note if you liekd this song and want to hear it again sometime in the future (which could be soon) is a 160kpbs @44khz Broadcast.

As of currently : A max capacity of 32 users. (Since this radio is new and fresh their is not much traffic yet)

The genres and styles of music are at random and I welcome all sorts of music.
I will do requets and song uploads when people drop me a email or msg on either Facebook, Xanga, or Blogger (here).

Music, style, themes and everything are mixed. Sometimes it is looped and will play the same artist or style for a few times before being changed. The links for the radio are on the bottom right hand corner under *links*.
I will post the links in a future blog too.


Anyways, I hope everyone enjoys it for now and I will fine tune the playlists as time passes by.



Thanks for visitng.




A short inept dedication:
Thank you sincerely and very much for listening in and beta testing the radio when I started it up again.
You have all been great freinds and those freinds of my freinds and thier friends and the unknown guets. You've all been wonderful. Thank you for dropping by.
It's a great feeling seeing the difference of then (few years ago) compared to now.

-Ghost (Shroker)
