Rhapsody blog

Rhapsody Web Services

Apparently the Rhapsody Web team has a blog. That’s kind of cool. I like their service, though I dislike that rhapsody’s web client is crashy on my Mac and doesn’t let me store tracks locally.

EDIT: I just noticed that Rhapsody.com has its own blog, which I’d say is meant for a bit more public consumption than the web services’ one. Both have a bit of that “filtered through marketing” feel to it though.

Think Secret launches Secret Notes

Think Secret – Think Secret launches “Secret Notes”

As many of the news tips on Secret Notes will be works-in-progress that are not yet ready for the front page of Think Secret, they should be read with more skepticism than regular stories.

I love how this implies Think Secret has had any accuracy within the past year and half to begin with. How long’s that “true video iPod” been in the works guys?

A pig with lipstick…

Is still a pig… I don’t see how this is any different from the current “PlaysforSure” sansa and “PlaysforSure” Rhapsody to Go. If there’s an integration problem because of the WM/PFS component, adding a different brand isn’t going to help.

Apple iPod nano (8GB) review by PC Magazine

Apple iPod nano (8GB) review by PC Magazine

What kind of a review is this? It’s a positive one for the nano and Apple overall, but it has a few bizarre offhand comments. Case in point:

You may want to consider using the volume limiter feature that was added after French lawmakers forced Apple to include it.

The worst part is that the quote’s not even accurate! Apple included a separate volume limit for EU countries that is not user configurable. The new volume limiter most likely came as a result of lawsuit pressure, though they’ve never actually stated a reason.

Cornell and iTunes Bonjour Sharing

It would appear that Cornell disables iTunes music sharing through Bonjour when you’re on the RedRover wireless :(
