Slate column on why streaming rocks]]>
Clive Thompson on 2004/04/24:
„Most legal downloads will work only on approved devices. A song bought at iTunes in "AAC," or Advanced Audio Coding, format won't work on anything but an iPod, while songs bought at MusicMatch or Napster in Microsoft's "WMA," Windows Media Audio, format won't work on iPods or many older MP3 players. And what if you get bored of that Strokes album you downloaded? Too bad: You can't sell it to anyone.“

KIS and St.Clair PR
timdaw on 2004/04/23:
„"These new units are the next generation of kiosk convenience," according to KIS President Rick Malone. "Travelers, vacationers and shoppers will be able to download music to MP3 players, laptops or to a CD, print vacation photos, change flight arrangements on the internet or purchase games and ring tones for cell phones all through a single innovative kiosk. By combining all of these popular features into one unit, the return on investment for these machines far exceeds the first generation public internet terminals and single purpose transaction kiosks being deployed today."“

Too many digital music players
gen on 2004/01/08:
„Schrader said. That means that consumers who already have music stored on flash memory or hard drives in other formats, like MP3 or Windows Media, would have to convert it to Atrac to play in Sony players.“
