The Eraser

I just purchased Thom Yorke’s new album, The Eraser, off of iTunes. It comes with an interactive booklet, which I think may be something new for iTunes. Not sure. I wish the full Radiohead corpus would show up on iTunes, but to date, I’ve heard reports that Yorke is adamant about the albums only being [...]

Digital Maoism: The Hazards of the New Online Collectivism By Jaron Lanier

If you haven’t done so yet, you should read Lanier’s piece over at Edge. Interesting stuff, although a bit alarmist, and perhaps elitist in spots.

The way it should be done…

This is amazing:

We’re not streaming, or offering 30-second song samples, or annoying you with digital rights management software; we’re putting up the whole record, for free, forever. Full stop. Please help yourself; if you like it, please share with friends.

Jay-Z on the Whitestone?

Total volume of music files on my computer:
