Burn A Song For 99 Cents

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the pay-to-play dept.

tusixoh writes "CNN is running an article about an online music company, Listen.com, who has signed deals with Warner Music Group and Universal Music Group allowing users to burn songs from both companies' catalogs (more than 75,000 available tracks) on Listen's Rhapsody music subscription service for 99 cents per track. Until now, Rhapsody had primarily offered only streamed music to subscribers from all of the world's largest record labels as well as several independent labels." The upside of this, of course, is that it won't be necessary to pay for songs that are just "album filler".

    What about burning a Linux ISO, that would be a good idea, considering the IP is free and most people don't care to download and burn ISOs, especially people new to Linux.

    Well, first of all honey, that wasn't the singer, that was the bass player, and you got conned by the oldest trick in the book.

    Hell, Geezer Butler used to pull that one all the time. He'd tell all the chicks he wrote all the songs and made more money than all of us and that me and Tony were just his front men. Worked every time. It doesn't take much to fool someone when there zonked out on coke and Jack, now does it sweetie?

    Now, what are you gonna do about it you bass-player f**king slut?
