That article includes a very nice tribute from Robert Wyatt. I still remember one of the guys at my old record shop (Tunes) recommending Joy of a Toy to me. Damn, I don't have it up on Google Music yet...

@dddanmar - I was fairly successful last night with Firefox, finishing off a couple albums and downloading another complete one. Just tried here at work and it was fine, too. I'…

It's not so much accuracy with the genre choices (that's not Alternative/Punk, it's Alt. Rock!) but using it for non-genre related items (ECM artists may tend to certain styles, but ECM is not a genre), and more so using fields like Composer or Perf…

Hmm, you know I just tried in Firefox and it worked right away. Did I never try another browser before? We'll see when I get home tonight...

Oddly, I enjoyed the movie far more than the series with Firefly. The Chinese slang bugged the crap out of me considering he couldn't be bothered to cast ANY Chinese actors. I may have even said it earlier in this thread but, seriously, the Chinese …

It's really funny how much I look at these ideas and think, "Sure, that must be really useful, BUT IT'S NOT ACCURATE!" Yes, sometimes I am self-defeating.

@denver & choice - Depp was most likely playing the guitar in the song. I don't know how good he is, but he has played guitar with a number of bands over the years. I vaguely …

I just tag everything klezmer;skronk so that nobody can find what they're looking for...
I was about to say that I used Alt. Rock instead of Alternative in order to distinguish it from Alt. Metal, Alt. Dance, Alt. Bubu, etc. but after so… -
Ugh, losing downloads like crazy now. I was doing well picking an album I could download and then piggybacking other albums in another window. But now it seems like every album I go for times out. I had about 10 minutes this morning when I could dow…

It was no Dr. Strangelove, but Mars Attacks! was a great parody.
-
@karg - Funny, I was thinking the same thing (3-5 were the peak, starting with "The Survivors"). But I will at least defend the first 2 seasons as having some solid episodes that in…

I think I had less of a problem with the ending of BSG because I watched it all after the fact. I had heard all the hype and then all the wailing and gnashing of teeth after the finale and then decided, you know what? I'm going to watch it anyway. I…

Also, here's my fanpage.

I've never really sought out anything in the 8-bit/chiptune scene,… -
@elwood - How is that? I miss Monsieur Dimitri. His mix for the playboy mansion a fixture in my car for months.
-
@karg - Same here, I only care if it's reproductions of originals like the ones I mentioned. Something like the huge Ella Fitzgerald or Coltrane sets I got from play.com or whatever…

I'm with GP. I'm also quite the completist. So eventually I'd like all of the correct info (including composers, labels, etc.) in all of the files.
But my bigger question these days is how do people handle box sets? I've just re-tagged … -
@BT (more potential spoilers)
Although some (or even most) people may not have expected that ending, it fit in with the themes and plot lines of the entire series. The iss… -
@GP - Understood. It's funny, I've really focused on getting things right on my home computers even though I mostly listen via Google Music these days (I use multiple genres which cre…

@Craig - I never heard about the lawsuit. I just figured it was because it was closer to her real name (Santi).

Possible spoilers but more of just a rant:
I really don't get how the ending of BSG gets called a DEM. Just because something that may or may not be what we reference as God is involved? For 4 freakin' seasons the show talked about relig… -
Since I have avoided iTunes like the plague for years I was wondering what fields it actually exposes. Does it not let you use Performer, or is it that the iPod won't let you? I have that issue with Google Music as they barely show anything.After clicking enough times I got the 5 bonus, too.@amclark2 - Olmos is so great in that segment.
Galactica had a number of flaws (especially that one season when it was like nonstop orgies) but overall it was really…Lucky you Katrina, not seeing it here either...
