  2. Stop Free* Spam by acidblood · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    OK, let me go forth here and say that, personally, I am fed up of Free* spam. I'm sure I'm not alone here, as other posters have already complained about it in other threads. (For those who haven't figured it out, the submitter's URL redirects to freeipods.com with his referral code.)

    I hope the Slashdot editors do something about such spam. Or will they follow the path of hypocrisy and claim ``it's not spam'' just because slashbots are doing it? Kinda like how slashbots love to hate the MPAA but are first in line to buy Star Wars or Lord of the Rings products when they come out.

  5. ALL live Grateful Dead recording on itunes by drfreejon · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    http://www.macrumors.com/pages/2004/03/20040319010 801.shtml Bob Weir was quoted as saying that every live Grateful Dead recording every put on tape (bootlegs or commercially released) will be released via itunes. Man, this will rock, but I can't seem to dig up any info post-April on this. Anyone hear anything about this?
