The issue isn't about punishment of a crime, it's about observation of other's laws rather than your own. In this case, which would be no different to a case involving a virus writer, he should be punished in Australia, according to Australian law, not extradited to whatever country wants to punish him. It is about democracy, and being responsible. Australia washing its hands of one of its own is irresponsible; his fate should be judged by his own legal system, the same system into which he had his own democratic input.
Agree wholeheartedly on the Avalanches point, it is really fantastic music.
I also haven't seen mention of a few newer names who I also find very interesting:
BT - albums ESCM and Movement in Still Life, the vocal tracks in particular on these cds are amazing.
Delerium - Had a few tracks (e.g. Silence) that have been remixed for mainstream airplay. Quite enjoyable to listen to, nothing particularly energetic in there.
Lamb - This is, like The Avalanches work, just incredible music to hear, however I'm not sure how to classify it. Lamb have three albums I'm aware of, one self titled, Fear of Fours, and what sound. I recommend all three, however I still find the first the most involving. You can check one of their tracks from their latest album on their website here.
