The Whole MDM concept isn't new to exchange (though it may be to office 365). ActiveSync for exchange has had most of these features. I think they are just promoting it hoping you will want more managment.
Ubuntu switched to Unity, which is as bad as it gets. GNOME was WAY better!
No disagreement there. But that Unity is the worst and Gnome is better doesn't say much for Gnome. I still put it towards the bottom of any list of desktops. Especially with KDE taking back the lead in quality for the big, heavy desktops from it.
Cinnamon, MATE, KDE, LXDE and several others come way before Gnome for me.
Thankfully desktop environments are all a matter of preference. đ
Nintendo's last (maybe only) good controller was the SNES controller. That was excellent. Easy, obvious, comfortable and worked perfectly for the available games. Everything since then has been a horribly failed gimmick.
I don't get it and I would pay for it. But, TV Stations are soon planning to do the same thing.
The New contracts we got made mention of it as well as the fact that instead of getting paid normal flat rate contracts where we get paid a flat amount 50% up front, 50% when deliverables are handed over is changing. They plan on using this "early access" to gauge audiences and see how they like content. depending on how well the show/episode contractors work is in does in the early testing would be how they pay you. The more view and higher ratings the more you get paid (to a limit) but you could also be paid nothing. This is very risky for people like us who have no involvement in the actual outcome of shows. We could potentially spend a lot of money and see none of it back. It also will not make people "produce better content" as the distributors is hoping, it will just make them loose money to produce any content. This is why we are considering stopping at the end of our current contracts and liquidating our gear. It's just not worth the risk for us and we've been at this since we were in Highschool (though we interned at another company then).
^ That makes me mad. That means that less people will be making the content of those sites but they will be making more content to fill demand. In he end we will have more stuff but less quality stuff by several orders of magnitude.

Where's my bucket of slap?! :rage1:
I think content creators will move to other mediums to produce for. While Youtube carries the same risk it has been shown that if your content is good people will watch it and you will get ad-revenue for it. This encourages people to make good content. You can also time your own episodes and release more of them per "season". There are also other video sites that are experimenting with different revenue streams for content creators.
I suppose there is a bunch of that... but then there are things like the child singer from canada.. can't think of and don't want to his name... became a Youtube sensation and is now a millionaire.
You don't think this would become more the norm considering modern distribution methods.. and the studio made sorta-bes would mostly fade away?
