Are you kidding me?

Music CEOs (David Renzer of Universal is cited sounding particularly moronic) want to get license fees for the streaming 30-second iTunes song samples. You know, the ones whose sole reason for existing isn't to entertain, but to sell the bloody songs!

I swear, there are few groups I feel less sympathy for than this one.

(Related aside: I attended a nifty program last week that, among other things, featured Charles Nesson discussing the insanely messed-up state of copyright. You can see the streamed speech here.)

TV Spoilers!

The Fine Brothers are back with yet another COMPLETELY SPOILERTASTIC SUMMARY of 100 TV show events, past and present. Do NOT click on the play button if you don't mind spoilers for everything from House to BSG to Magnum P.I. to Cowboy Bebop, and just about everything in between.

And yes, some of the spoilers are a bit wrong, or require some explaining.

A rare cut-tag, because you really should have to click twice (or three times if you have embeds off) to make sure you know what you're getting into. )
