what a bunch of tossers. I'd upgrade my phone every 6 months if I could.
Edit: And for that price you'd expect to get either a 10min track or a video.

"At the moment, to be honest with you, we don't have the functionality in-house to provide a mechanism for transferring between mobile phones and PC. We don't have that functionality available."
Is he really being as ridiculous as he sounds? Or is he claiming that no-one's developed a way to connect a phone up to a computer?
Hell, I wouldn't mind about never being able to upgrade my phone. As long as I can get all my Songsmith classics on there I'll keep it for two hundred years, goddamn.

The Head of Mobile "didn't realise phones were churning that quickly in the marketplace these days." You'd think he'd have done even a tiny bit of research.
