Huh? No, it's not. What're you talking about?

hi ,
asher , just use a searchengine , ......

However, it is important to set good practices from the start to avoid the pitfalls of search engine indexing. Going back to correct 100 or 1000 pages is not really feasible in our kind of operation.
Title: Insert the page title in the tag at the top of each page as the first meta tag after the opening <html> tag. Make it a descriptive title that identifies the page content. This is the most important touchstone for search engine indexing. It is used by every search engine and appears in the result page. For practical reasons, a unique title is important. If a person gets search results for 20 pages from the site and each one is called "GlobalSecurity.org," this repetition does not help the visitor selected the best page for his purposes. Length:80 characters<br />
<br />
Description Meta Tag: This is the second most important element for search engine placement. Try to provide additional information that is not contained in the Title tag. FAST, Northern Light and Google do not support this tag. Length: 150 characters<br />
<br />
Keywords Meta Tag: the keywords tag is the least used factor for search engines, mainly because during the early days of the Web they were used to stuff irrelevant, but high-demand keywords into a page to raise its ranking. Only DirectHit, AltaVista and Inktomi still use them. Do not use commas to separate the terms. Length: 250-1024 characters <br />
<br />
Warning about Keywords Meta Tag: If you use terms that are not found in the text in the keyword meta tag, it can actually penalize the page's ranking because the three search engines above consider this practice spamming. <br />
<br />
On the other hand, keywords can be crucial for internal search engines and data mining.<br />
<br />
Invisible pixel alt tag: Since AltaVista, Go.com, Google and Lycos all index alt text in the image tag, using invisible pixels and inserting alt text is a good way to boost your position. This is a practical way of inserting terms that may not be contained in your content, but are still relevant. Because the the graphic file is transparent and tiny, it does not show up on the display nor does it slow up the download.<br />
<br />
< img src="/images/dot_clear.gif" width="1" height="1" alt="Keywords"> <br />
<br />
We have a transparent graphic available in the main images directory.<br />
<br />
Use the heading tags: (<h1>, <h2> to provide structure to your text. Search indexers (Altavista, Google, etc.) go through your documents and use the headings to determine content. Descriptive headings can improve your showing in the search engine indexing. When a search engine finds keywords inserted in headings and high up in the page, you get bonus points. Google also uses bold text.<br />
<br />
Content: most search engines give preference to content that is in the first 300 and 600 words. Therefore, your most important content should be at the top of the page. <br />
<br />
Keyword abuse: avoid using keywords more than three times in a row or seven times on a page. <br />

Remember that it can take up to three months to get indexed by some search engines and even longer to get a reasonable ranking because of the importance giving to links. It is a slow process so it's best not to take wrong steps at the start.<br />

<br />
Here's another example: BuyMusic.com sets strict limits on what you can do with the songs you buy. Most are bound to a single PC, so you're only allowed to listen on one computer, while every song you buy at iTMS can be played on up to three Macs. [...] <br />

<p><font class=nf >I posted about this the other day. As usual Asher is selectively telling the truth - when he isn't lying that is. <br />
<br />
The DRM is not Apple's fault. That's what they managed to get out of the record companies who control the rights to the music. I'm sure Apple would have liked even less DRM, but it wasn't their call.<br />
<br />
Now for what Asher didn't tell you.<br />
<br />
Buymusic only allows you to keep your music on one (1) computer. It isn't clear yet, but it seems to be the case that when you get rid of that computer the music is permanently gone.<br />
<br />
The itunes store allows you to keep the music on up to three (3) computers. You can move your music to a new computer if you want and deauthorize the original one. Basically, it's yours for life.<br />
<br />
Buymusic.com restricts your right to burn to CD and transfer to portable players. The amount of times you can do this, or the amount of players differs depending on the record company.<br />
<br />
The itunes music store has one restriction. You cannot burn the same <i>playlist</i> more than 10 times. You can burn any particular song an infinite amount of times if you so wish. You can transfer your music to an unlimited number of ipods (or whatever other players install support for AAC).<br />
<br />
Easy choice really.</font></p>

True. For example, you can only burn MB20's songs to CD 3 times...but you only need to burn it once. <img src="/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif" border="0" alt=""><br />

I'm not finding a link for you. I really don't give a **** if you believe me or not; I found the program and deleted it, so I know it exists.<br />
<br />
I noticed that some program was launching without permission at startup, slowing down my boot time. I finally tracked down the program with my "Process Viewer" utility. Caught "Microsoft Database Daemon" turned on and (presumably) sending information back to Redmond. Trashed the program and my system performance improved dramatically. Sounds like spyware to me. </td></tr></table><font class=nf><br />
This is complete bullshit. <br />
<br />
There is absolutely <b>nothing</b> on google about this, nor does it make any sense for the Mac ports of the Jet DB to contain spyware.<br />

Why don't you try a different story, one that's more believable and perhaps backed up by facts?</font></p>

Did you read what I quoted?<br />
It has unlimited transfers to players. Why do you have so much trouble with such obvious things?<br />
<br />
And you only need to burn the thing once...then the protection is removed. CivPatriot even mentioned that this is common practice with the iTunes stores' users, to remove the DRM.<br />
<br />
Not that it matters to me, I've never burned an audio CD in my life.<br />
<br />
And something tells me the kind of people who download music online are doing it because they don't care for the CDs anyway.<br />
<br />
But your "unlimited players" idea is cool -- with BuyMusic's stuff, any WM9 player can play them, and any MP3 player that supports WM can play them.<br />
<br />
With iTunes, you're stuck with iTunes and the iPod.<br />
<br />
"Unlimited players" and "No contest, numbnuts" is correct...</font></p>

No. As far as I know it doesn't work like that. If you attempt to rip such a CD it will only work on an authorised computer. If you attempt to convert it to mp3 the quality is unacceptable. Of course you can get around the DRM if you want, but that's illegal.<br />

Well, what if I want a copy in case my computer gets stolen? What if I want a copy for my car, or a copy for my office? What if I want to make mix CDs for parties. What if my wife and kids want their own copy? More importantly what if I want to send a CD of music to a friend I swap with (this is technically illegal, but the record companies turn a blind eye to it, because the people who do this are usually big customers and buy the discs anyway if they like what they've been sent). <br />

itunes already supports a variety of players. It's up to their manufacturers to make them AAC compatible. I'm sure they will. <br />

Nope. You are grasping at straws here. itunes DRM is simply better. You are just trying to blame Apple for things that are beyond their control.<br />

You are totally wrong -- audio CDs burned from your computers do not contain DRM. Once you burn them into standard CD-audio format, the DRM is gone. <br />

And why would you convert it to MP3? MP3 is obsolete. Personally I'd put it into WMA-lossless...<br />
<br />

What if I want a copy for my car, or a copy for my office? What if I want to make mix CDs for parties. What if my wife and kids want their own copy? More importantly what if I want to send a CD of music to a friend I swap with (this is technically illegal, but the record companies turn a blind eye to it, because the people who do this are usually big customers and buy the discs anyway if they like what they've been sent). <br />
<br />
See.</td></tr></table><font class=nf><br />
All of the above are easily answered by the option: "portable mp3 player".<br />
<br />
And, again, the people who want CDs typically do not use things like the iTunes store for it. There's no sense in it -- CDs are still of higher quality, and if you want it on CD...buy it on CD.<br />
<br />
The kind of people who are more apt to buy from things like iTunes are portable MP3 player owners or people who only listen to music on their PC.<br />
<br />
As for burning all those CDs, why on earth would you need to burn more than 3 copies??<br />

You probably don't even understand how DRM works, let alone the specifics between Apple's kludgey AAC DRM and WMA's DRM.<br />
<br />
Unless you're talking about the licensing terms...and I disagree, I think having to use the iPod to listen to them on a player is unacceptable. Same with iTunes.</font></p>

Its not just a common practice, most people do it with out knowing. I think the only way that it does not remove it is if you burn it as a data CD.<br />
<br />
I personally cannot tell the difference b/w itunes music store music and that coming from a CD, provided i'm not an audiophile, but most people aren't. <br />
