In what was originally going to be a small three-to-five minute rant, Boter (with a little bit of FearTheClaw thrown in) rages about Activision allowing GameStop to break street date on Modern Warfare 2 (which was later denied by Activision, as told in the PPS to this PS), making ample use of the new censor bleep for curses. It ran a bit long, but it's worth a listen for the point of view of an independent shop on unfair competition from national retailers.
Total number of bleeps: 13, just under one per minute. Direct link to Boter's comment (warning: language).

Activation so lost cool points with this move. And Gamestop....come-on!!!!
why did i get this in my google reader right after i was in game stop?
Actually, Activision denies any involvement. We'll talk about it in the podcast next week, but it was a GameStop corporate decision that Activision had nothing to do with.
alright, so activation got it's cool points with.
also, we should totally make a business called Mom & Pop, Inc. It would be a franchise like best western, or the economic equivalent of a confederation.
