Ah, Hebron - my hometown. Way to represent, guys! (I don't know this guy, and he's almost exactly my age, so he must not be a native. I'll be he came from Colchester!)

In other words, "BoingBoing, but with clips from 'The IT Crowd.'"

eMusic was the bomb back when they offered unlimited downloads. It was the first (and only) business model that actually cut into my Napster downloads. Unfortunately, their new limited model just doesn't provide enough bang for the buck.

Am I the only one whose first thought upon seeing this was "Great, it's like the red-dot-laser-pointers, only 100x as annoying?" I guess I'm just a crusty old grump...at the tender age of 33. (Or am I 34? Damn it, I feel like I'm 80!)

Man, I am *dying* for a good e-book reader. Mostly for the portability - I'm the kind of guy who lugs around 3 hardcovers and a half-dozen paperbacks on a 5-day vacation. I'm also the kind of guy who refreshes a page if it doesn't load in .00002 seconds, so this 1-second page turning stuff will clearly not cut it. An e-book "race" is exactly what we need to get a good, usable reader out there. The winner will be whoever rocks the iPod model first - it's gotta use DRM-free files, without hassle.
