1) If i download something like audio or a movie somewhere eles instead of buying it off ITunes, can i still put it on my IPod?

Often yes, but it depends on the DRM and format of the media.

2) Once they're on my Ipod, bought from ITunes or not, can i get rid of them off my Pc but they'll still be on my ipod?

They will stay on the iPod until you reconnect it to the PC. So effectively, they will be deleted from your iPod.

Thank you to anyone who fills these questions in.

I'm not sure if this is in the right Forum :c

It's not :/ .

A note: I think this is the first update in almost a month with no combo breaker!

UPDATE 29th March 2009

Cheers dude. I know it's said every week but the effort you must put into these updates IS appreciated; it's not just a generic repetitive thanks.

All you need to say is "Thanks for the update!" and I'll know you've given me enough appreciation for updating the list. :)

I ran out of creative ways to say thanks many updates ago as well :) . Thanks!

Boo... umm, time?

Boo indeed.

Seriously, I love both GOOG and AMZN (two of my favorite techs) so I am sad to hear that they failed so epically.

Of course, I can't be up 24/7 searching for missing users in my spreadsheets

Maybe its time to recruit some of those 75+ daily B/Pers...

As for the list, anyone below #50 in B/P who desires to be in the top 50 someday will now need to acquire over 50,000 B/P as Gooch just became the 50th user to achieve that many points.

Congrats! That would take me a few more years =/

One last thing, what did you think of Newgrounds' April Fools' jokes for this year?

It was certainly the most elaborate April Fool's Day prank that I have seen on the Internet and it was good fun. B/P turned into a spam-fest and it was hard to see what the UG submissions were but it was a very interesting day. Although the cynical side of me wonders what real features could have been developed for NG in the time dedicated to AFD.

This is certainly the most active pack of users on the list right now. I am just hoping to keep up my pace to avoid falling behind. Pretty much no chance of advancing in this deadlock.

Finally 10,000 Blams!

Triplist here I come!

Another month, another 20+ users passed. I had predicted rank number 865 so my prediction was off slightly but alas, I hit all deposits for yet another month.

Sorr for the overtaking =( I aim to do it but then my good nature when the deed is done makes me feel bad. No real active users to fight now till SC D:

It was only a matter of time, no hard feelings. I did not think it would happen this soon but my pace has really fallen off the map. Good luck!

With the advent of medal points, a lot of reviews are cropping up that are just merely "walkthroughs" or "strategy guides" for submissions. This is rather common for games with medals in which you merely have to type words to get points.

My question is are these reviews considered abusive? My rational is that they are often (1) cut-and-pasted and (2) are not actually reviewing the submission.

Thanks.

Thanks for the update, somehow I missed seeing it.

178 +22 ** zimzap 10,578 9,821 18,690 2,753 156 41,998 +1795

Very solid month for me but the next (read: current) one will be much slower. I should be able to get to 10,000 blams before the next update in a week so I will be triplisted!

I have received a mystery comment on my news page from one of those Chinese officials and now it is stuck. Bizarre.

Wee that was fun, I especially like the Tankman.

Guys, you can still hover over the links to find yourself. I am #84 and I will analyze later.

God bless being a portal watch.

Easiest save point that I have gotten in a while :)

You really need to lay off the pokemon.

Congrats! The family name will live on!

It is only natural that they will run out of creative ideas for new pokemon as they constantly expand the pool. I cannot say if it has happened yet because I have not played the new games but do you really think that they will be able to add another 300 unique, clever, and inspired creatures to the series?

Level 32!!!

Although this icon does not look good with a green background... Can I really switch my aura after all these years? Nah.

Spring Break. It does wonders for my free time.

"Spring Break" was over the same time frame for me as well; however, still no time for video games. I guess I am really an adult now.

I only played a bit of both on the original Xbox. And it was pretty bad ass. I never did finish them. I'm not sure about purchasing the 3rd though because it isn't done by Remedy. So we will see. I'll wait for some gameplay.

As far as I can remember, both are backwards compatible on the 360 and are definitely worth playing. You can buy both of them used for under $5.

I am really excited about this. I love Max Payne and I was afraid that I would never get to see a sequel!

Unoriginal but I anticipate Xbox 720. Not like Microsoft got very creative in naming Windows 7.

I believe it will be announced in late 2010 and released in November 2011.

Most new games will come with NXE installed so you cannot even avoid by not logging into XBL.
