Child Pornography
Remember when Pete Townshend was briefly arrested because he had been looking at all kinds of child porn and get was released after saying he was researching a book? Whatever happened to that book?
I looked it up… it’s been abandoned, but it’s good to know the “I’m writing a book” excuse is a valid defense.
If you’ll excuse me, I have some things to do, I’m writing a book on downloading movies.

A Modern Promise
The new Francis and the Lights album is officially out today in mp3, aiff and vinyl pre-order. I was lucky enough to get a copy of it a bit earlier this week and I can safely tell you, it’s worth the purchase in whatever format suits you best. I went with the vinyl.
The process to buy it is simple enough and at the end of it I was greeted with a link download the album as mp3s. Fantastic. I’m also in the process of downloading the 1080p version of the video… for free. This is evidence the record industry isn’t dying, we’re just witnessing a changing of the guards.
Also, the embedded muxtape player? Insert your favorite biz-dev keyword: game changer, it moves the needle, it’s going to provide hockey stick growth, whatever… it’s really something.
