MUSIC: Primus - Sailing the Seas of Cheese

I am a huge fan of Primus. It all started with this album. When I first heard it, it blew me away. I had never heard anything like it. Songs like Tommy the Cat and Here Come the Bastards have been stuck in my head ever since. Les is one of the great bass players of our time. If you think you have never heard Les or Primus think again. Primus did the Theme song for Southpark and Les did the theme for Robot Chicken. Buy this Album. You will love it.

COMMENTS: Online Music Stores

I have tried a few of the online music stores and thought that I should discuss them.

ITunes Store
Of course this is the biggest store out there. They just past 500M downloads. At 99c a song they are about on par with a CD's Price. The quality is good to. you are limited to using IPod for Portability, but that is what most people use anyway. Now they are talking about adding Video and Movies. This is great. That Mac Mini will truly come into it's own with this. Like I said before, it is the perfect HTPC.

Napster
Napster was great, When it was free. Of course that was against the law. They are doing ok now though. They introduce Napster on the go which is a monthly few so you can RENT all the music you can fit on an MP3 Player. This is pretty good. They have afew different players that it works on. Cost is about 15$ a month.

Rhapsody
This is Best Buys Project. Can't say much about it.

Yahoo
Just got started and it rattled some chains. They are doing the On the Go idea as well. But it is only like 7$ a month. They also have worked to make it compatible with Microsofts "Work with" Program. This is a very good deal.

Allofmp3.com
This is a Grey area Russian company. They have tons of music and formats. The price is right to. 1c per meg. That is like 3-5c a song on average. Problem is I don't think they have to pay the artists. I doubt it will be around much longer.

There are several others. But those are the ones I am familar with. Hpe this was interesting.
