Code.  Just give the geeks a few weeks and that'll be tapped into faster than a keg of Schnapps on clue 12 buddy.

How do they make it so they know you are burning them and to charge you. I would think that it wouldn't be too difficult to filter it through some other ways and burn without them knowing.

It's actually inbedded within the songs themselves I guess.  It's just a matter of time.

Can't you convert them to MP3? Or are they in some proprietary format?

I'm not sure. I think they are MP3's, but they're copy protected somehow.

They announced at 30MB ipod photo today for $350

I like the Ipod, but they're just too much if you ask me. You can get a Archos Mini for about $275. Sure, it's only 20GB, but the functionality is way better than Ipod, and I believe they have a 40GB version as well but don't know the price on that one.

so...what stops you from burning it?? I don't get that

They're copy protected somehow. You simply can't burn them to disc, but I have a program that will record anything played over my soundcard.

You suck.

I know. I have a window cling to prove it.

I tried it way back, and it's gotten much better. And it's free with Comcast. That's what rocks!

How do they make it so they know you are burning them and to charge you. I would think that it wouldn't be too difficult to filter it through some other ways and burn without them knowing.

I don't know. I believe the technology is called Janus, and it's gonna be big. If you ask me, Ipod's and Itunes is dumb for not going this direction.

Wow!  I just read my last post and the last two sentences were word-for-word things my mom used to tell me.  I think there was some channeling going on there.  Hi Mom!  :)

That'd be cool... Or, you had a good role model, and the lessons stuck :)

Strange story....

When I was a kid, I was really into reading about ghosts and the supernatural (made me into the fine 'head that I am today)...
 I read a story about a relative coming back to someone to say hi, and I was at my Great Grandmothers house and asked her (a devout catholic) if she would come and see me after she died... SHe was my absolute most favoritist person in the world then...

Anyway, about 6 years later, we were going to see her in the nursing home, since we hadn't seen her in a long while. I was really excited to go, but at the last minute, I had gotten scared, and stayed in the car. Looking baqck on this it was really weird. After my mom and grandma came back after seeing her, they were telling me that she looked like a skeleton, and that she had stopped eating and wanted to go to heaven...

I felt sooo bad for not going up to see her, and thought real hard about her naving to suffer in the nursing home. Not at all the Grandma that I had remembered. Later that night, I prayed and prayed that if she really wanted to get better, that she get better... and if she wanted to die, he let her die peacefully.

I awoke that night at 10:42PM (I still remember it as if it had happened yesterday, instead of 1988), to a load 'croak' and a weird moving spiral of color (similar to Anthrax's State of Euphoria album cover).... I was totally freaked out, and wanted to cry, and was scared... I had no idea what was going on.

The next day, I found out that my grandma had died sometime after bedtime at around 8pm, and midnight... I told my mom it was at 10:42pm... and how I 'knew'...

so I think that it can happen OT... maybe she thought you needed a mothers gentle touch...

I had the best, Zeph!  She was one fine woman.  I totally "get" what happened to you.  Happens to me all the time.  You have to be open to those things and it sounds like you are.  But they do happen!

Thanks Mom!  :)

Zephy, happened to me, too, when my Mom died.  I know the exact minute she died.  Yup.  I understand completely.

 I came acroos this today and wanted to share it...it's so beautiful

Love's Exquisite Freedom

Love arrives;
and in its train come ecstasies
old memories of pleasure
ancient histories of pain.
Yet, if we are bold
love strikes away the chains of fear
from our souls.

We are weaned from our timidity.
In the flush of love's light
we dare to be brave
And suddenly we see
that love costs all we are
and will ever be.
Yet, it is only love
which sets us free.

It's a long story, Zeph, but it goes back a while ago when I was trying to grab my birthday Joe (643).  I got a little confused reading the numbers and bad went to worse and green and Terry V about had heart attacts at my expense.  ;)  And green thought I was a little "snippy" trying to explain my way through it all.  I guess you had to be there.  So then today it almost happened all over again but I nipped it in the bud!  Didn't I?
