iTunes Indie Meeting Notes
BWJones writes "The CD baby! site contains notes taken from the indie music meeting recently held at Apple. Interesting statistics revealed were that there are about 500k songs/week being downloaded from the iTunes Music store and that 45% of songs are being purchased as albums. Other interesting items of note are that Apple is treating everyone as equvalents in that all labels receive equal treatment with the same deal, the same agreements and you work with the same team of people. What's more is that Apple cuts a check EVERY MONTH which is huge for the smaller labels." Wired has another story about iTunes which notes that what Jobs taketh away, the community is bringing back.
As in, there should be checks and balances to avoid people spelling cheques wrong.
I know, I know, it's the AMERICAN WAY!!!!
It's still wrong.
Looks like Apple got e-music right, though.
If you don't want to repeat the past, stop living in it.
Allison felt a hot flutter in her belly as Jeff's hand eased down
from her waist and slid onto her bottom. She stiffened slightly, looking
around, but nobody seemed to notice.
They were just walking along, on their way home from a basketball
game, she and Jeff, Molly, Peter, Mike, and Evan. It was dark. The
streetlights were few and far between and few of the houses along the
street had their lights on. It was hot, and she was sweating a little,
trying to keep cool by not moving much.
Up ahead Peter and Mike were wrestling on someone's front lawn as
Evan shouted encouragement and Molly looked on.
Jeff's fingers squeezed in against her soft buttocks and he turned
and kissed her lightly. She kissed him back, feeling his lips between
hers as she nibbled on him.
She felt her breasts swelling under her loose white T-shirt and
squeezed her pussy muscles together as Jeff's hand slid slowly up and
down the cleft between her rounded buttocks, rubbing her through her jeans.
She flicked a lock of blonde hair out of her face and smiled, her
soft, full lips parting to reveal gleaming white teeth. A car passed and
she looked away, a little embarrassed.
But there was a limit as to how much she could do with him anyway,
and when his hand slid lower, his fingers easing beneath her buttocks
and over her pussy mound she pulled slowly back with a look of reproof.
It wasn't as if they had even dated or anything, and even though
she wasn't in high school any more and would be back to college in a
couple of weeks she didn't want tales told about her.
She moved forward beside Molly, and Jeff jumped on Evan, bearing
him to the ground alongside the other two. She and Molly exchanged
glances and shrugs.
Molly was her best friend. The two of them were a lot alike in many
ways. They were the same age, had roughly the same taste in men,
clothes, music and food.
They had similar hairstyles, straight, a little below the
shoulders, and parted in the middle. The difference was that Molly's
hair was a bit thicker, and was a deep reddish brown in colour. She also
had bangs. Allison was a golden blonde, and her hair usually looked just
a bit more mussed, a bit less precisely brushed than Molly's.
They were both of average height, though Allison was an inch or two
taller, and both had athletic bodies. They had trim, firm, flat bellies,
flaring hips, round, firm buttocks and nicely sculpted legs.
Molly had bigger breasts, and they were rounder, but Allison's
breasts were good sized and firmer, her small pink nipples actually
sticking slightly upwards in a way that made all the girls in the shower
at college jealous. They were, the girls agreed, the perfect shape.
She had won the unofficial title of best breasts during one shower
session after volleyball, much to Molly's amusement. Molly had come in
second.
"Come on, you guys," Molly sighed.
"Yeah, knock it off," Allison said. "What are you, children?"
Evan pulled himself away from Jeff with a grunt and stood up, hair
tousled. "Hey," he said. "Why are we wrestling with each other when we
should be wrestling with... the girls!"
He leered at them and stalked forward.
"Go away, Evan," Molly sighed, backing up as she eyed him warily.
Instead he growled, then lunged forward. She squealed and turned to
run but he caught her around the waist and lifted her up into the air,
swinging her around.
Then before she could move Jeff rushed Allison, bending low and
grabbing her around the waist. She screamed as he hefted her up and
lifted her over his shoulder, turning around and around.
"Put me down!" she yelled.
"Me got wo-man!" he growled like a cave man, staggering around.
He slapped her bottom and she yelled, kicking at him. He set her
down heavily and she fell down, glaring up at him.
"Dick he
> OS9 and below sucked - They had an ancient core, I'm not surprised you had multitasking issues.
Perhaps, but even Windows 95 (and probably Windows 3.1) could copy a 17MB file faster than 20 minutes :/
What took them so long to get that right?
I am a homosexual. I bought an Apple computer because of its well earned reputation for being "the" gay computer. Since I have become an Apple owner, I have been exposed to a whole new world of gay friends. It is really a pleasure to meet and compute with other homos such as myself. I plan on using my new Apple computer as a way to entice and recruit young schoolboys into the homosexual lifestyle; it would be so helpful if you could produce more software which would appeal to young boys. Thanks in advance.
with much gayness,

Thanks for your letter. Being Catholic myself, I know exactly what you're talking about! It has always been our plan here at Apple Computer Inc to revolutionize personal computing with our high-quality and highly gay products.
I'm happy to answer your letter by letting you know that YES we will be releasing an entire hLife ("homo-life") software line. You'll be able to recognize it in stores by the small stylized logo depicting a large cock entering a tight anus with an Apple logo on it. ("Suddenly it all comes together" indeed!).
Anyway, I hope you and other members of our community will join us on our mission, and purchase the exciting new hLife boxed set. Only the boxed set comes with translucent cock rings!
Sincerely,

Reportedly, he does eat out her asshole when he's drunk, but only after she is anal gang-banged by some guys she met at the methadone clinic.
