Scottland Holidays Part II

In the last days we went from Aberdeen up the costal line to the north sea and then down to Glasgow. We have meet some nice freinds, sent time with them, saw beautiful landscapes, castles, sheep, lochs, swamps a more than recommendable Bed & Breakfast and had a lot of nice foods. Now we arrived in Glasgow and are hanging out here. I'll write more, when I'm back but for now, guess what? - I'm going to a pub.

So it's time for a holiday. I'm in Scottland for the third day now and we just arrived at a friends place in Aberdeen. We arrived early sunday morning in Edinburgh went for a breakfast and visited places there. Second stop was Pitlochry for a nice Bead & Breakfast. Now we're in Aberdeen and since we're about to go out to a pub I'll just leave you with some pictures and write more later on!

Sampling, Copyrights & Such

So, before we go on holiday, here's one last post from home. I'm sitting here on my desk, my bags are packed and I'm waiting on Timemachine to back up my system. I must say this is one crappy piece of software. It only starts hourly and you can't trigger it. So after switching the backup-drive on 3 minutes tool ate i have to wait 57 minutes for the backup to start. Thanks Apple, your Ipod is already gone, i exchanged it with a tape! The Subject of the video could also be triggered by thinking about the previously mentioned. Once again it's about copyrights. I'm still watching it, so nothing more to say. Enjoy! via nerdcore

Great Album & Gimmick Concept

If you know me, you also know I am always ripping on the music industry for totally failing on the copyright side, plus totally failing the artists needs and interests. You know why? Their biggest mistake was being so greedy to make music digital in the first place. Everybody who loved music already had loads of vinyl records, but the music industry implied that their quality was poor compared to the CD. They even started not producing certain stuff on vinyl anymore, because they wanted you to buy a feckn CD-Player and their bull CD's. Then the mp3 came and everybody was outraging. And now, for the last ten years they don't come up with anything but complaints. I say they need to come up with something creative to make it cool to have the original music and not only a copy of it. But what to do? I have my own ideas to that matter, so if you're a major label reading this, make me an offer i might tell you some things! But what i tell everybody for free is that these guys did it right! It took me less than a minute to go ahead and buy the album plus the player without even listening to the music, great job! And by the way, as it looks to me, vinyl will outlive CD's sooner than you might think...
