Oh you hipsters using your twisted RunDMC inspired lingo, but this in reality is BAD! I spent what had to have been an hour of my time the other day setting up a blog to keep track of the RIAA's Exclusive Mixes, which they distribute only through p2p software, and now their head something or other leaves to be with it's family! My blog is in shambles and you consider this good news. H o w d a r e y o u. What if the RIAA disbands, what's my blog going to do?! Stop thinking globally and start thinking bloggily, my blog needs the RIAA.

Anyway if you want the latest info on the newest, coolest, h!pest, experimental group EVER; the RIAA, check out my blog at:
http://noneinc.com/RIAAEM/RIAAEM.html
we've got the elusive RIAASantana Mix no ones talking about...yet! really i can't stop listening to this damn mp3, i'm not kiddin', life really is this pathetic at times. but it's conceptually flawless...oh drek.

The Register gives Hilary a proper send-off:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/28989.html

"Rosen's vilest deed was not the crucifixion of Napster, but her
determination to strangle Internet radio at birth. Rather than seeing it
as a useful publicity medium, the RIAA fought long and dirty to burden
stations with punitive royalties and administrative demands."

And the latest issue of WiReD has an article/interview about her:

http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.02/hating.html

The article starts with Rosen debating free music at the Oxford Union
debate hall. Not surprisingly, given the audience, she lost (and almost
voted against herself when she nearly walked through the wrong door).
Biased recap of that debate here:
