Category Archives: musicI got an email from Comcast recently that had a lot of crap I could care less about. However, there was a small little blurb that did catch my attention:
As a Comcast High-Speed Internet customer, you’re entitled to receive a wide range of benefits and services at no additional charge. One of these is called […]
While I got to hear a lot of “classic” Christmas music today, which I like in small quantities, I much prefer songs like Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer:

I also am fond of this piece by Weird Al:

Maybe I need to subscribe to Dr. Demento?
Last year, I purchased an MP3 locker from MP3Tunes, thinking it might be nice to have my music in the cloud. It’s a nice idea, but it’s not something that ends up being practical for me. It’s not easy for me to get my stuff from MP3Tunes to the device where I really want it–on […]
One of the cool things about the Nokia N81 8GB is that podcasts are actually treated like first class citizens now! As you can see, it’s right there with Music.
Disclaimer: Yes, I work there, but they don’t pay me to write about phones. I do it because I like to, and these are my opinions, […]
One of the things I have oh-so appreciated as of late is the Nokia Multimedia Transfer application. It has made syncing music and media from my Mac to my Nokia Nseries and Eseries devices a good experience. It’s not nearly as fast as my iPod Shuffle, but at least it makes it just about as […]
I realize this isn’t tech, and this may be news to people that actually follow the music industry closely, but I don’t. Most music out there sucks. Most of my musical tastes involve guys my dad’s age or older.
And someone, I thought The Eagles were done doing studio albums. However, now there’s word out that […]
Word has come out today that the usurious rates that SoundExchange was about to charge webcasters for royalties for streaming music are under consideration. According to Wired, they are not going to enforce these royalty rates, which would have put many a webcaster out of business, including my favorite: Pandora.
Of course, it’s not over yet. […]
The Symbian Guru reviewed nuTsie earlier today. I have to agree, it’s a pretty cool idea for an app. The idea of streaming music to my mobile phone is something I’ve wanted since I purchased a locker on MP3Tunes. However, I have some serious issues with it–serious enough that I would much rather sync my […]
Now that I’ve had a week with the Nokia N95, I have some more fully formed thoughts about this device. Various observations if you will.
The first thing I noticed about this device was the speed. Everything about the device was snappier. It is a lot faster than my other S60 device in many respects, but […]
I am not even going to attempt to read what’s currently marked as “new” in the RSS reader. At least not right now. I am, however, going to go through what I’ve been meaning to get to for a while and highlight a few older things here:
GAIM wen Pidgin, yah?: As a result of an […]
Michael Robertson has an interesting proposition with his new music store called AnywhereCD: buy unprotected MP3s (at 192k/s or higher) and, for a couple of bucks more, get the physical CD as well. I’m not sure how many of the artists they sell are not EMI artists, but hey, it’s a start. Note that you […]
Golden Boy Michael Roberston is shaking the world up again by offering free, unlimited music lockers. It turns out he’s been doing this for at least the past month or so, what we like to call a “soft launch,” but today was the announcement that this was going live.
Now, of course, there are some catches:
When […]
