Last night I found a copy of a Green Day show from 1994, recorded in Berlin. I printed out the associated track listing without realy reading it. Today I see that it contains the following track: “I Fought the Law (and the Law Won) [Clash cover]“. Uh, dude, this was first a hit by The Bobby Fuller Four in 1966 and was first recorded by the Crickets (as in Buddy Holly and the…) in 1960.

“The court rejected these arguments, ruling that Johansen did nothing wrong in bypassing DVD scrambling codes that stopped him using his Linux PC to play back DVDs he’d bought.”

Danny Sullivan over at SearchEngineWatch makes an interesting point when it comes to publishers objecting to GooglePrint.
“…woe to the publisher or member of a publishing group that is ever found during legal disclosure to have complained about not being indexed better on Google. You can’t enjoy years of free traffic from a source, then suddenly decide that copyright law is now different just because the words appear in print, rather than on the web.”

I wish I were a little apple ipod,
even if I had the ipod flu,
’cause I know that when I see the ipod doctor,
he’ll pack me up and send me back to you.

iPod woes: Day 0

Aug 2005
Today my iPod decided to hose itself. Luckily it’s still within the “one-year limited warranty” period (I ordered it on 12/28/04) so I can get it fixed/replaced for “free”. (Since it’s more than 6 months old, I do have to pay the $32.27 shipping fee.) Apple is sending me a box to pack it up in and send it back. I’ve heard good stories about Apple’s service and I’ve heard horror stories about Apple’s service. Which one will this be? Stay tuned and find out.
