Server-based DRM solutions are hostile to consumers

I have a long history with DRM (Digital Rights Management): I worked on the Windows Media 7 Encoder team; I worked at two different internet video startups; and as the owner of record label, I experimented with some of the very first paid digital download solutions (all long lost to internet history at this point).

wonderful music film

I was browsing around the blogotheque site, and I came across this wonderful film they did of the MusicNow festival. It reminds me greatly of the wonderful Russian Ark film in both character and style, but the performances are simply wonderful and unique.

Goodbye Weathered Wall/I-Spy/etc…

Although it has been vacant a while, I’d always hoped that this site would eventually feature another club. It was a fun place to play even with it’s weird entrance. I miss it. What is going to replace it? Another condo building of course. Whoop-de-do. Guess the only place to remember Seattle is in [...]

good article about the parade of failed Seattle clubs

I don’t get out as much as I used to, but it is kind of scary the turnover in Seattle clubs and how many of them I’ve played at or been to:

here is a tip

The last 3 physical copies of the first pressing of Bethany Curve’s “You Brought Us Here” are now for sale on cdbaby. We haven’t decided if we will do a second pressing, or just go digital only. So this CD will be a collector’s item.
Go Get it!
