It is said he is doomed to wander the Pointless Forest for eternity, his presence on this plane reduced to random, disembodied words appearing as posts on the Y!SCOX board to befuddle those who would think him a sentient being. Legend has it that if you flush an offering of chocolate and snails down the toilet while repeating his name three times, Biff will appear as a random selection of letters in your Alpha Bits the next day, or as a selection of Scrabble consonants. ------------------------------------------------------------ The text of this Yahoo Me...

Narrator: In our last episode, Babbling Biff was sent by evil Prince John and the Sherriff of N.O.T.T. on a quest to find asteroid kernel 2.7, which, unbeknownst to Biff, does not exist. Cut to throne room, where Prince John and the Sherriff of N.O.T.T. are wiping tears from their eyes, having had a hearty laugh at the thought of Biff questing pointlessly for the non-existant asteroid kernel 2.7. Sherriff of N.O.T.T.: And that's not all, Sire! I took the liberty of providing Biff with a tracking device to help him "locate" the asteroid! Prince John: Chortle! E...

Let's not forget that the software they used violates the copyrights of others. That, plus the company's unacceptable responses, show that Sony has no moral high ground to stand on. I expect the musicians to sue Sony for lost sales. This whole fiasco will not put Sony out of business, but it will cost the company millions of dollars. Who knows? Maybe Sony and the other record companies will actually learn something from all this. ------------------------------------------------------------ The text of this Yahoo Message Board post has been licensed for copying and distribution by the Yahoo Message Boar...

Recs: 18 http://www.boingboing.net/2005/11/20/sony_insider_drm_is_.html "Some of the top Sony BMG artists who had XCP placed on their CDs are complaining directly to the label heads, furious that it will hurt their relationship to their fans and their sales as they go into the massively important Christmas season. Add that to rising number of anti-DRM voices within in the company who have been against DRM as only hurting "the people that are doing the right thing and buying our music." This all means that some of the label heads are finally starting to believe that DRM is just bad for business." Sony of course will claim they have moral high ground in spite of hurting their customers, their suppliers, and no doubt their employees. Just what is the point of this malevolent middleman, anyway? ------------------------------------...

At the sight of Robin, take your stand With the gallant leader of our band. Send a joyous shout throughout the land For Rocket Robin Hood!!! Piss-boy to the court of evil Prince John and courtesan to the Sheriff of N.O.T.T., Babbling Biff utilizes his incredible density to confound his opponents with non sequitors and meaningless questions. Too short for an electro quarterstaff, Biff wields stale baguettes and his fearsome handlebar moustache when running from battle. Found lost on the edge of the cosmos looking for the elusive asteroid kernel 2.7 due to his illiterate misreading of galactic star charts, Biff insists to anyone who will listen that it exists.
