Count me in on the $25 thing.

Two cents from this atheist: If someone takes offence at being wished a Happy Whatever, they're paying too much attention to the wrong part of the phrase.

Kez - just above the buttons for bold, italics etc there should be some text saying "Upload/Insert", and the four icons beside that are what you need for images etc.

(Quote) I think the phrase you're looking for is "beta testing".

I worked for an American company for several years, so I tend to spell in American English but not all the time. Consistency will probably be a problem with me.

GP - you're absolutely right to push this one if no one else is. Hey, I'll bump it occasionally if it needs it. As you say, it's a "communication ethics" issue. My concern is that the lack of response means there's nothing eMusic is going to do abou…

The other thing with the response to the changes this time round is that now the changes affect the very operation of the site itself. Previous changes have been to do with pricing or a change of focus, but what's causing the uproar now is a massive…

(Quote) I noticed that too. One regular poster criticizing the "hysteria" complained about the "messageboard mafia" but I think it's fair to say that apart from a few regular names, it's a different mafia every time. I wonder is this reservoir of…

OK, I think I'll go back and add images to my posts. Don't want to be left out!
-
For adding images, what do we do? Via upload or via URL?

(Quote) Given that this name is a pseudonym of a nickname, it very much depends on what your definition of "is" is.
I should have a couple more "Classical Highlights" things done this week. I had written chapter 1 of "A History… -
Re the Alexander String Quartet, here's Fanfare's Jerry Dubins: (Quote)

Well I for one have always wanted emusic to be slower and much less user-friendly, so I'm happy.
Seriously though... Jesus. Every change they make is a significant step further away from common sense, especially for someone who downloads… -
Images: 1, 7, 16, 20 I think offer the best possibilities for having a clear blog title.
Of the 3 new themes, I'd go for Peava. I agree with Dr Mutex, 3 columns seems too much. If Crema had 2 columns I'd be happy with it. -
Hmm, they all have their merits, though in terms of how they appear right now, without any changes, I'd prefer Sapphire and Connections. The latter has a width advantage, though I'm not fond of the way the tags are presented. I like Rindo too as lon…

Probably like all cheap Soviet archive material there's some gems in there.
I see among the Red Note releases are the Glazunov symphonies conducted by Vladimir Fedoseyev, about which I've read good things. The same performances have also been … -
Ack! Just tried adding a tag to my first post and now it's back to be reviewed! Sorry about that - must unlearn some of my own blogging habits.
-
OK, I finally hit "Submit for Review" on my first thing. Takes me back to the early days of putting together lists on emusic.
I'm not sure where the name Stephen J. Nereffid came from, but I suppose it must be subconscious homage to this… -
@ Craig: Nice change to the "favorite artists" bit!
Also, a typo: "What better way to do that then to start a blog?" - "then" should be "than". -
Re names-
I don't have a problem either way when it comes to using Nereffid or my real name, if a collective decision is to be made. That said, my inclination is to stick with Nereffid because it's how I picture "that guy who used to do the cl… -
Blog looks fine, such as it is right now.
I'm with Germanprof re "introduce you to your new favorite artist or song" - it's the sort of thing you might see on emusic. I personally hate advertising that Wants To Be My Friend. In th… -
The Talich Quartet's complete Mozart String Quartets for 9.49.
These recordings came out originally in the 80s and 90s to much acc… -
Also, this: (Quote) Good grief, are they trying to sell us some lube?
-
Yuk.
(Quote) To me, that would mean an Advanced Search function, not "prominent imagery", which is of course a way of making it easier to find what emusic wants me to look for. -
Yeah, the full lecture text would be useful because what's presented up there is incoherent. His argument appears to be that file sharing is fundamentally immoral but still preferable to not being promoted by iTunes.
-
So, one more, eh? Thought it might eventually stop.
-
Aye.

Never overestimate nuns' proclivities regarding outrageous directives under Catholic theology - it's Vatican ecclesiasticism.

Well I'd better start blogging again then!
