So… this internet thing,
from New Music Strategies: One of the best essays I’ve read in awhile on the topic — Let’s take it back to first principles: the internet is not a promotional tool for music. Nor is it a retail platform. It’s not even a method of distribution. It’s electricity. A well-written essay by someone who groks the spew is always a pleasure. Thanks, Andrew!

PS: My Christmas present will hopefully fit the Internet appliance bill quite nicely…
