The Null Device

Analysts are panning Universal's much-hyped music-by-subscription service, which doesn't let one download or save tracks, but merely allows you to listen to streamed music from a selection for a fee, calling it "half-hearted". And not surprisingly. If Universal offered something like what 4AD have done, allowing users to download high-quality MP3s from the PolyGram back-catalogue for a reasonable fee, I'd sign up for it. Though somehow I suspect it'll be a pleasantly temperate day in Hell before Edgar Bronfman Jr. (of war on anonymity fame) signs off on something like that. (via realkosh)
