Virgin takes on iPod

Some observations...: WMA = open standards??? ("Virgin said support for open standards such as WMA will let people select the music service of their choice.") MP3 may be open but WMA???

Virgins and "penetrate" do not mix. ("in a bid to penetrate the market dominated by Apple Computer's iPod".)

Since Virgin seems to have sold out body and sole to Microsoft (thru using WMA), rather than a Virgin, doesn't that make them more of a s - - t?
