Hopefully AG will take a cue from Kazaa, go out of bussiness, and have another company (such as Sound Universe) located on an obscure Pacific Island with no extradition treaty take over the task of managing the central server and the distribution of the client....
That's because they are not listed in the obituaries...they are buried in a small mass grave just outside of town. The bottom of the tombstone inscription reads: R.I.[A.A.]P.

Yeah, I really don't want to spend 18-20 bucks on a CD if I just like one song. What if there's not a single available? I support the bands I like, I buy their CD's, go to shows, etc. . . Is it stealing? Probably. But as the other posters pointed out, it's only stealing 10% from recording artists and 90% from Music Companies, and if you ask me, they deserve the shaft for what they've done to radio.

What I miss is the "bright" and "young" aspect. The Silicon Valley of 2002 seems to have gotten a lot older. It makes sense -- most of the young people like myself moved out when they got laid
Found something more interesting than coding, eh?
Looks like its back to newsgroups.

Excellent article, thanks for the link! This is almost as good as the Courtney Love does the Math article on salon.
