  1. Great article, Ray.

    Concise and direct. Enough information to pique interest in the subject, but not so much that the reader will think he now knows all about it.

    This is what the internet is all about. In the past, reading such an article in a magazine might have left me feeling frustrated, but reading one like this on the web, with lots of links, lets me dig into any subject at the depth that is appropriate for me.

  2. The hearing is to take place on
    the 22nd, regardless of whether
    this issue is settled or not.

    Does that mean, if the RIAA keeps
    this litigated ( stalls ) that
    streaming it won't happen, because
    the measure is still being fought ?

  3. Dreddsnik, what basis do you have for saying that it will go forward regardless? Haven't you ever heard of (a) stays and (b) adjournments?

  4. He quoted PJ I guess, you must ask her and kick/ban him for not indicating the quote correctly.

    No wait, that was some different form of non verbal computer communication tool. ;-)
