Re: A cluster of curious links...
Youtube and Myspace (or as some are calling it MurdochSpace) are corporate entities. More people need to wake up and see past the web 2.0 trendiness for what they really are. Youtube is handy as long as you recognise it for what it is, MySpace is just the biggest waste of bandwidth on the planet, I hope the data centre where it's hosted floods and is infested with a plague of cable chewing rats. Back in my day, if you wanted to make friends, you went down the pub, did nice things for people etc. Pass the werthers.... anyway, er yeah, bittorrent. I can kinda see where ISPs are coming from, not only is the legality a bit dubious, but it's like a big bandwidth sponge soaking up as much as it can. Still sucks, so just complain and switch ISP, they'll get the message. Hip Hops commercial downfall had been due for ages too, music is circular and Hip hop has reached saturation point, not just the genre itself, but the way it permeates almost all pop music. I love Timbaland as much as the next guy, but it's time to move on.
