Haha! Steve Jobs, in your face! Finally, DRM-free legal music downloads - by Amazon. This is certainly better than waiting for someone to seed in Bittorrent downloads *cough* (fucking leechers!)… Can’t wait to buy old tracks - these things are so hard to find illegally.

I would have actually preferred getting my music from Amazon instead of downloading them illegally. The record industry should have thought of this years ago. Imagine 2000+ legal DRM-free mp3s? Universal and EMI could have already profited millions.

It is saturday. I’m at work and I’m bored. I found this at torrentspy.

One of the creators of cartoon band Gorillaz has picked up a £25,000 award for the amazing 3D animation behind the virtual band’s “live” performances.

Wow, that’s a lot of moolah. $_$

Have a nice day

I am not a big fan of Southpark but I love The Simpsons. Anways, I thought it would be nice to post something like this here. Here is what is posted on Simpsons Channel.

Bart Simpson switched networks for one night, to join forces with Eric Cartman in his quest to get Family Guy pulled off the air. In the South Park episode Cartoon Wars (Part II), A slightly different looking and sounding Bart Simpson exchanged words with Cartman and Kyle regarding the pulling of Family Guy. It is the second time creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker have directly referenced The Simpsons. In a 2002 episode titled ‘Simpsons Already Did It,’ the creators poked fun at the fact that The Simpsons had ran out of storylines.

But Trey and Matt love The Simpsons, as Trey said following that episode “For some reason people lump South Park and The Simpsons and any animated program together. [It’s] unfortunate that we have to be compared to one of the best shows on television ever. We never get compared to Sister, Sister or Small Wonder.”

ABC.com has full episodes of Lost, Alias and others (i think) available for streaming. And yes, they are free. BUT they are only available in USA :(
If you are from the US, click here to watch those episodes that we can only watch weeks after it is shown.

He usually saves his beefs for other rappers; this time, 50 Cent is going after Oprah Winfrey.

In an interview with The Associated Press, 50 complained that Winfrey rarely invites rappers on her talk show: “I think she caters to older white women.”

“Oprah’s audience is my audience’s parents,” the 29-year-old rapper said. “So, I could care less about Oprah or her show.”

He’s not alone in his resentment toward the talk show host cum media mogul.

Rapper-actor Ludacris, aka Chris Bridges, said in the May issue of GQ magazine that Winfrey was “unfair” during a show he appeared on last October with co-stars from best-picture Oscar winner “Crash.”

There is something fishy going on here. I never liked David Blaine. I hate watching his stupid shows and I hate all the bullsh*t he is doing. I mean come on.

David Blaine intends to sleep with the fishes but only for a week, and in full public view.
The 33-year-old magician will perform his latest stunt by living underwater for seven days and nights in a “human aquarium” in front of New York’s Lincoln Center.

He will conclude by attempting to hold his breath underwater longer than the record of 8 minutes, 58 seconds.

The finale of his latest stunt will air live in a two-hour ABC special on May 8 (8 p.m. EDT).

Blaine’s previous feats of endurance include balancing on a small platform for 35 hours and surviving inside a massive block of ice for 61 hours, both of which were performed in New York. In 2003, he fasted for 44 days in a suspended acrylic box over the Thames River in London.

I found this on Yahoo. Anyways, i think Nicole Kidman is hot. But she is getting old. Katie Holmes is pretty hot too.

Tom Cruise has been practically shouting from the rooftops about his love for his pregnant fiancee, Katie Holmes. But when their much-anticipated baby is born, the superstar dad probably won’t say a word.

Cruise, a longtime Scientologist who introduced Holmes to the faith, is likely to follow Scientology’s practice of quiet birth. Followers believe the absence of talk and other noise in the delivery room is more healthful for mother and baby.

No one’s saying publicly where baby Cruise will enter the world, but if it is at the actor’s Beverly Hills home then noise control might prove a challenge. Buzzing paparazzi are already camped aside the property.

With the little one expected soon, tabloids and gossip Web sites have been rife with chatter about silent birth, spawning much speculation about what it is and isn’t.

Some are sure it means the mother can’t make a peep during childbirth forget the popular image of a chaotic hospital-room scene with a laboring woman spewing invectives. Others have claimed silence must be maintained for a full week after the baby is born and that Scientology opposes medical exams for newborns.

According to the tenets of Scientology, known as “Dianetics,” words even loving ones spoken during birth and other painful times are recorded by the “reactive mind,” or subconscious. Those memories, adherents feel, can eventually trigger problems for mother and child.

What the doctrine doesn’t say is that laboring moms can’t make some noise during delivery.

“We’re not going for absolute silence,” said self-professed “Scientology mom” Michelle Seward. “If a sound is made, that’s OK.”

After years studying the faith, established in 1950 by fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, Seward went the silent route for the birth of her son, Sage, five years ago.

Seward drew up a birth plan and discussed her desire for a wordless delivery with her doctor.

In the hospital delivery room, she used hand signals to communicate with her husband and mother. A nurse tapped her on the shoulder to tell her it was time to push. When a complication arose after 30 hours of labor, the doctor whispered to Seward that she would need an epidural.

“I had a happy, calm baby,” she said. “I know it’s because of the way I delivered him.”

Actress Anne Archer, a Scientologist for 30 years, called the recent speculation about silent birth “ridiculous.”

“We just want to keep the environment as calm, quiet and loving as possible,” she said. “Any culture in the world would understand that and any woman who’s given birth would understand that.”

What a waste of talent. I’m not into rap, but nevertheless.

Detroit rapper Proof, a longtime friend of Eminem, was shot to death early Tuesday at an after-hours nightclub.

Proof, seen here at the 2004 MTV Europe Music Awards, was among Detroit’s most renowned battle rappers.
Dennis Dennehy, a publicist for Interscope Records, announced the death of the rapper in a statement.

“Memorial service arrangements are still being made, and his friends and family would appreciate privacy during this difficult time,” he said.

The 32-year-old Proof, whose real name is Deshaun Holton, was a member of the D12 rap collective and was best man at hit rapper Eminem’s wedding in January.
