Thanks for listening, and thanks for the suggestion. The primary reason that I go through Live365 for my broadcasting is that they take care of licensing and bandwidth fees. I pay a flat $5/month fee to them and my station is totally legal. Pretty good deal, really.
ok, so it's not technically a dupe since the previous story referred to an article referring to the article instead of referring to the article itself. It's just an inferior clone. The editors must be having an off day.
Apparently the current underground favorite audio player for Windows is foobar2000, which was written by a former Nullsoft developer (Peter P. aka zZzZzZz). It supports mp3, ogg, ape, flac, mpc, and relevant to the article has abandoned ID3V2 support in favor of APEV2 tags. (And it's been suggested that the source will be released in the near future.) Supposedly the audiophile geeks at hydrogenaudio.org can hear quality improvements over Winamp, although even the developer suggests that it's probably a placebo effect.
Just don't expect too much; it's a very minimalist GUI (what mean these "skinz" of which you speak?), and doesn't support Win9x/NT4.
He's written more fantasy than science fiction, but Tracy Hickman (co-creator of the Dragonlance series) is a member of the LDS (Mormon) church. The Darksword series he co-wrote with Margaret Weis has a few religious elements to it (and a slightly SF twist), but I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for....
Still doesn't *really* block images.

It's worth noting (again) that when you choose "block images from server", it still *downloads* the image, it just doesn't *show* you the image. This, I think, defeats most of the purpose of blocking images. Cast in a vote for bug 94118 in bugzilla if you think it's worth changing too.
say what? Helms blocked the bill which would have *lowered* fees for small webcasters. (Read the article!) The only reason the webcasters got a reprieve is that SoundExchange (the company that collects the royalties) decided to not collect payments until the legislation is passed.
Worth noting is that it still *loads* the image, it just doesn't *display* it. Not quite as helpful yet as it could be for those on slower connections or the paranoid trying to keep their IP out of advertisers' server logs....
Did you actually talk to them about it? From what I've read, the extra cost comes off with activation. There are many reports over on the DangerInfo forums of people walking out of CompUSA having paid $250, with both rebates in hand.
There will be eventually, but Danger isn't saying exactly when or what the licensing details will be. From their FAQ:
Danger's objective is to make the hiptop application platform open to all developers. At this time, we are working with select developers on an individual basis. We intend to launch our formal developer program in early 2003. If you're interested in becoming a developer for Danger, please email us: developer@danger.com.

(Apologies if this has been mentioned before; I did a quick search and didn't see it.)

I'm guessing the sysadmin job will be more hazardous to your health in the long run....
2003 in da house!
You mean...you're from the future? Ack, don't tell us what happens, lest our actions change what's meant to be!
(don't mind me, I'm giddy from lack of sleep....)

So install the Google toolbar if you're using IE, or the Mozilla variant if you're using Mozilla, and use the "up" button provided there. Whee.
two words: mood rings.
those old Twilight Zone episodes are looking more boring every day....

There's also a support forum for the player.
Wow, just imagine. Someday everyone will have a P2P network of their very own! Er, wait....

You know there's more than one Cringely, right? http://www.blancmange.net/tmh/articles/cringely.ht ml

probably the same kind of stuff that was in it a couple months ago.

From what I read, the T-Mobile one can be used with the UPC from the contract, actually.
There's a $50 T-Mobile rebate and a $100 CompUSA rebate (good for the activation of any cell phone, if I remember correctly).
The "HoTop"? Mmmmkay. I don't even want to think about what that means.... Try "HipTop".
There currently aren't any SSH utilities for the Hiptop. Given that it lacks a "|" key, it'd be tricky to get some stuff done that way anyway.
Make that CompUSA. They're the only authorized retailer other than T-Mobile themselves.
More info, including reports of people getting activated and having trouble getting activated, can be read at the DangerInfo Forums.

Blame the author of the original article; the posting here is just copied verbatim from that.
