"annoy the target but don't annoy it enough to be considered a primary threat"?
aren't colds caused by a variety of similar viruses? so immunity to one doesn't protect you from the rest?
P.S. I wouldn't go into work with a cold. infectiousness aside, I figure I wouldn't be clearheaded enough to focus on work. half-effort sometimes isn't better than nothing at all.
yeah, support genetic engineering, and people think you're friggin' Hitler. (but in all seriousness, I'm tempted to think that racists/anti-Semites/etc make the concept look worse than it actually is.)

for me, it missed a few.m4a's and accepted a few.mp3's and.flac's that the player refused to play other songs from those albums (i.e. same rip/same file format/same tagging) went through just fine
the album art was a more consistent issue. However, I tend to put one copy of the cover in the same folder and link to it, rather than embed in
yeah, very glad to see Google Music accept FLAC uploads.
I have a non-smart phone where the contents of the memory card are accessible as a regular drive when connected to a PC. Easy to manage, yay. I only have to do FLAC-->MP3 when I'm putting something on there the first time. My phone doesn't read FLAC, wouldn't want to use it anyway due to space limitations (16 GB card, mostly music). even switched from 320 to 256 in order to save space.
kept the FLAC versions on my PC hard drive, and play those when I'm at home
http://www.dimeadozen.org/ too also has lots of legally available live music one may prefer BitTorrent to HTTP uploads allowed unless the act has said they don't want their stuff there, as opposed to etree being optin-in.
ah, so I'm not the only one who's heard of MediaMonkey. I love it. that it handles a wide array of audio formats is a big reason why. (MM is also way better at adjusting metadata and other organizing)
Even on Windows, I go with Amazon MP3 to avoid iTunes-for-Windows. maybe the presence of Google Music would help convince Apple to address this issue...
you're getting blasted by cynics/realists for this, but... Are you saying "Google Records" would be just as threatened by indies as the RIAA is now? One can be rather optimistic about alternatives to the traditional music business model.
I don't see any particular reason to switch away from WinXP. my old machine still works, so I don't feel the need to mess with it - replacing with a Mac, using a lightweight Linux to reuse older hardware, whatever
As for more-recent classics in the EMI catalog, I can think of The Beatles and Pink Floyd off the top of my head. And whatever you think about Britney and co., I wouldn't mind the income stream. (Katy Perry is with EMI even though Britney in particular isn't)

*murder or sterilization*
I suppose it's important to keep them separate, I probably should have been clear about that.
I did say "racists/anti-Semites/etc make the concept look worse than it actually is."

if you drink a ridiculous amount of it, not sure what the definition of 'ridiculous' is here, though.
I've seen beers with calories,carbohydrates,protein,fat in the label fine print
enough with the poutine - put mustard, onions, hot sauce, baked beans, mac salad and meat on top of the French fries instead. :)

+1 Funny, but I'm out of mod points
sometimes requirements are written in a way so that only the favored company can meet them
if I hadn't already posted, I would have given you +1 Informative for that ... telling it like it is.
seems like early kinks to me

I suppose it's easy to just short-circuit to "I WANT FREE MP3S PLZ", but there really is more to it than that.
Yeah. FLAC.
I keed, I keed...
I'm familiar with that concept because one uses that method to take care of Dutch ovens
However, I feel Teflon is definitely still useful.
Yes, the RIAA does still try it even when it doesn't work. I simply don't listen to those particular 'artists'/albums/songs

maybe Google could run an enlightened record label, but keeping the large-scale business muscle that indies all too often don't have.

One can be rather optimistic about alternatives to the traditional music business model.
you're right, the tech (autotune and other slick production techniques) can work, and eye candy frankly doesn't hurt.
Sometimes, I'd like to pretend I'm a purist, but I'm not
However, some voices and some writing can't be salvaged.
I don't suggest _ignoring_ the well-regarded classics either.
even if Apple did want exclusivity (not sure), maybe the labels flat-out refused.
maybe if Google Music launches and things go well with just Universal on board, that would send a message to / set an example for Sony and Warner.
