Free Really Legal Downloads – SpiralFrog

07 Thursday Sep 2006

Posted by mp3monster in General, Music

≈ Leave a comment

Following on from an earlier blog entry (here) about SpiralFrog providing legal, freedownloads – EMI have now made an agreement to license their music to the service, that puts the catalogues of two of the largest players into the service. In addition to this, EMI have approved the use of lyrics as well on the site. If my recollection is correct about nine months ago EMI was one of the players that spent time trying to shutdown lyric search engines.

The Motoring Darwin Awards?

07 Thursday Sep 2006

There seems to be a rising number of cases of people trying to do something (illegal) about speed cameras. The cases that I’ve seen have actually resulted in the individual(s) end up being hurt or prosecuted for more serious crimes and receiving greater punchishment as a result. So I’d like to suggest a new form of Darwin award for motorists where nominees end up beig prosecuted for more serious crimes as a result of trying to avoid speeding charges.

Here are my first nominees:

  • Manchester Bomber (story here)
  • Caught in the Act (story here)

Feel free to post links to more nominees in the blog comments 🙂
