Good advice for grad stud'nts. Oh, you don't need advice? See if I look up anything for you ever again. Now I know how Lear felt before the blindness thing. I didn't like that part.

Magnatune: MP3 music and music licensing.

The music is OK here, the classical stuff is very fine, especially the cello/viola da gamba channel, but the implications of open source labels must be frightening to RIAA-types. Hey, bands know where they really make money, clubs and tours and, most importantly, sales of t-shirts and cd's at the door. Classic dis-intermediation, short for cut out the freaking middleman, especially ones as perniciously evil and greedy as RIAA-ilk.
