Let’s not wade too much into the profanity or the slander here, but I think Tom Whore, Jeff, Morton et al have the nuggets of some real common sense (so do the others). Making music has been a profitable (or at least an artist-sustaining) enterprise almost since...

I can’t remember posting anything about Foo.com to FOIB before, but I’ve been watching their swan dive with a grin on my face for the last 18 months. In the early going, FOO was positioned as high-fashion snob culture meets geekdom and the twentysomething...
