The iTunes Party

Dave Winer, in what I hope is a tongue-in-cheek request wants Apple to enable an element he can put in his RSS feed so it won't work with iTunes. As a longtime Scripting News reader and listener, I know Dave loves it when developers party with users. As a listener-user, I'm enjoying the iTunes party. So where's the line then? Do users trump format? Or does format trump users? Or am I missing something.

I do hope Apple and the podcasting community come to some understanding. But meanwhile I've found myself reading some funny links. This one featured yesterday off of Scripting News had this quote in the upper right:

"Never moan. Do not be a victim. Either raise hell and change the game or get out of there." - Jack Welch

Which made me chuckle as I read that post. Both because that particular post was moaning, and because Dave's raising hell. Again.
