biting kneecaps

Wow, didn't notice that Sony signed a deal with Emusic in June... I just noticed a ton of Dylan music show up on my recommended list there...

(Too bad I already had them...)

This is huge, though, bringing tons of major artists to Emusic, the original home of flat-rate drm-free downloads.

Very nice, and nice to see that DRM is slowly dying in favor of affordable downloads.

I finally got around to adding WFMUs blog to Liferea, just so I can find interesting things like the Rolling Stones from an alternate universe.

Worth a listen even if you don't like the Stones... or maybe especially so.

... about people who take literary analysis a tad too seriously.

I was wandering around leonardcohenfiles.com this morning and ran across an essay on The Future and figured I'd read it.

I got to this part:

Ok, looks like it's time to get rid of mserv... I went pretend shopping today and looked at the Squeezebox and that will have to be my next purchase. Too slick.

And then I noticed that the Slimserver package is not only Free Software it also supports streaming to winamp, xmms, etc. Which means I can actually listen to my mp3's at work. Or on my laptop... or on the stereo... or in the bedroom...
