Random Playlist Song: Vivaldi - Gloria in Excelsis Deo RV 588 - II. Et in terra pax hominibus

Comparing Online Music Services to P2P Networks - "Discount the fact that the Big Five labels continue to take money from people even when they're stone cold dead, Ray Charles being the most recent example. You can be pretty sure sales of Charles' music and recordings went up when it was announced that he passed away, and you can be equally sure that Big Music wasn't channeling the profits to Charles' relatives."
Indeed.

Pirated DVDs Worth More Than Drugs - And they are less socially undesirable, too.

New iPod - Ooh. Maybe I'll shed my reservations, especially since they're now US$100 cheaper and have a 12hr battery life now. And I didn't know the old models didn't have a "shuffle songs" feature?! God, how does anyone live without the playlist shuffle feature? Maybe I should buy one and make my brother in law jealous. Muahahaha.
