Make or *listen* to MP3s, windows will probably pull decoding support for MP3s
from their native OS, reducing the number of listeners. The new IE 6 beta, has
mediaplayer built into the browser, currently it supports mp3s, but for how
long? M$ like the big labels are in the business of making money, not of
offering choice, thats for people like us to do.
I predict that in the future we will "listen" to music held in some organic
matter, like a licking a wooden stick or something
"Mama come here quick, gimme some of that lickin' stick!"
