Equipment is another problem...a good eight track sound card (e.g. Midiman Delta 1010-LT) will run you around $250, more if you want something fancy (e.g. the Midiman Delta 1010 which has the connections in a rack mounted breakout box instead of the back of the computer--much easier to use). The cost of a reasonable workstation has gone down a lot--my Dual AthlonMP 2800+ machine cost around $2000 total (including all of the equipment I got to upgrade my old 500Mhz k6-2 that ended up in this box and my used 24" SGI Monitor).

    The microphones are what kills me. I use my live sound stuff to record occasionally. An SM58 will run around $85 for vocals, an SM57 $75 or $80, and a set of drum mics...I have a cheap $140 set of Samson drum mics with a pair of weird overheads I got from a guy for $20 and it sounds OK but in reality they suck. A good set of Shure drum mics (for live sound) would cost around ... $600. Add a second kick drum (grr, stupid Brent) or a fourth tom and you'll add another $200. It's cheaper to buy a cheap drum machine than to get mics for a real drum :)

    Recording demo quality material is cheap and easy nowadays if everyone in the band has mics for live performances. Recording studio quality stuff is still expensive for a bunch of college kids making subs all day. Sure, maybe the guy with a good tech job and lots of money to waste can do it but the people actually making music all day can't. The important part is that it is a lot cheaper now to maybe record at home and trick your friend in the college music program majoring to be a mastering engineer to master your recordings cheaply and then get some CDs pressed with a small booklet to send to the labels.

    There are still labels that accept new music. Even the big five do--InsideOut is an imprint of EMI and carries only progressive rock/metal bands like Symphony X and Transatlantic. Relapse Records consists entirely of Grindcore (well, most people wouldn't think of Grindcore as music...), SPV carries a lot of metal now; everything from Hair to Black to Progressive. Koch records also has quite a few excellent bands (e.g. Opeth).

    Lastly, life is not all about records. It is easy to book a tour if you don't care where you will be playing or whom you will be playing with. Hell, I am planning on doing vocals for Recently Vacated Graves on a two week Canadian tour at the end of July. Look at the lyrics...there are a week worth of shows booked so far for three weeks worth of time spent contacting venues. Every band should tour a few times before they release a real record (that's how people get to know who you are when you don't have a huge marketing machine behind you).

    The above is based on the experiences of several friends who are in bands which are mildly successful (successful enough to be on tours, one in Europe and to have actually gotten signed to real labels with DIY demos).

    P.S. Are you planning on going to a show on the Dream Theater and Yes tour? I'm afraid of how much those tickets will cost.

  48. There are other options by OctaneZ · · Score: 2, Informative · on Do-It-Yourself VOIP Telco

    It's important to note that Sveasoft is not the only group out there extending the abilities of these boxes. Linksys/CISCO releasing the code has allowed many groups a crack at modifying these systems to their hearts content.
    Wifi-Box is incredably stable, and offers many options, taht are also being extended.

    OpenWRT aims to be very light, but allow you to add packages to customize anyway you want.

    More info on the router can be found at Seattle Wireless.

    • Loop-back encryption is kinda clunky. dm-crypt looks to be a cleaner way to do encrypted devices. And pam_mount can mount encrypted home directories on login.
    • As for doing encryption in the filsystem, several people are at working at it.
    • Your notion that OpenSSH only creates a tunnel while the "console" is open, is little more than FUD. Oh no! The console!. That's the whole point. SSH is largely interactive by its very nature.
    • It's quite easy to setup OpenSSL in inetd mode for SSL'd services.
    • Encrypted executables? Are you joking? WTF would that achieve? If someone has physical access to your machine, you're screwed anyway. And if someone has broken into your machine remotely then your executables are probably the last thing to worry about. On Unix/Linux systems you need root access to write to system executables. If an intruder has root access, they can do anything and don't need to modify your executable to screw around. This is a straw-man argument.
    • Linux is very good as a VPN router. Not only do we have IPsec/IPV6 from the KAME project, there's also the (abandoned) FreeS/WAN project and the spin-off Openswan. But don't forget OpenVPN (available for quite a few platforms, not just Unix/Linux). If you're really desperate, you can always combine SSH and PPP to make a VPN.
    • Tokens? You have heard of Kerberos haven't you?
      BTW, here's a good LDAPv3+SASL+KerberosV HowTo

    My god you are a troll. Oh, and as others have pointed out, encryption does not instantly make something secure.

    I encourage you to try out iRATE radio. It lets you (legally!) download music. If you like it, you can buy it from the band. Get the best of all worlds: legal downloads, experience music you haven't heard of before, and avoid the RIAA fairly easily.

    (Disclosure: I am a developer for this, it also needs more work (like most things), so if anyone feels like helping out with a bit of Java coding/UI design/..., come along)
