People that are enamored by the device think it is a truly groundbreaking, original, elegant, refined thing and it will probably encourage a ton of good stuff to happen to other phones that have the bad design, poor interface cancer. But it is still an iPhone.

Pretty good comparison!

But I would use an iPhone if I had one!

I wonder if in my entire lifetime I will ever sit down and listen to a Radiohead album.
I bet I will not.

Out of curiousity, have you ever sat down and listened to a Pink Floyd album all the way through? Doesn't strike me that you have the type of personality
that would do that.

Nope, not a once.
I have heard a bunch of Pink Floyd people have played me and liked some of it a real lot but I've never sat down and listened to one of their records all the way through.

Radiohead > Pink Floyd

Because you had to make a hasty exit. You were 1/2 way through Animals when you heard: "Oh Marsup, we're in the bathtub. Can you grab the
sponges and votive candles on your way in?"

Radiohead's big problem is that Portishead have just written the LP they have spent the last 10 years trying to to write.
I dont hate them, they just have been 2nd best for so long.

hippy.

Haven't been able to stomach more than a few songs over the years, so I don't have much of an opinion on their lengthy catalogue except that they're boring. Goddamned boring. It's like listening to a band that, when they're listening to the stereo at home, only puts on records of themselves. Too precious.
