Todays links of interest:
- TiVo, ‘Entertainment Weekly’ team up for favorite programs
TiVo will automatically record everything that EW tells it to record. This actually sounds annoying. We propose an alternate use from this partnership: how about TiVo deletes Michael Ausiello from the pages of EW, where his gossip and spoilers are taking valuable space from actual reviews and commentary. - Microsoft Emerges $20.75 Million Richer From Immersion Lawsuit
To put it into perspective, that’s a little over three hours worth of earnings for Microsoft. - FBI arrests man over leak of Guns N’ Roses songs
Because, well, you know, there’s still a chance "Chinese Democracy" might get released (is it really anticipated, however?). Doesn’t the FBI have better things to do, like, oh, fighting terrorism? - Don’t just buy the music, fans told – now you can invest in big names of the future
Not innovative and not even new, but it’s nice to see that the media continues to explore ways for artists to find alternative funding sources.
