It appears that, if the MPAA has it's way, it will soon be illegal in certain US states (if not all) to use a router, firewall, or encrypted email. All of this by way of ensuring the ability to track down all peer-to-peer file sharing to the individual sitting in front of a computer running a copy of KaZaa (or whatever). Nevermind the hacking/cracking/virus free-for-all that would also be unleashed by such idiocy -- nor is there any mention as to whether or not corporate entities/media conglomerates would also have to give up these technologies. http://www.freedom-to-tinker.com/archives/000336.html The state legislatures currently in need of clues^H^H^H^H^H constituent input are: Texas, Massachusetts, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Alaska, Tennessee, and Colorado.

This is largely off the beaten path, but can anyone on the list point me to some good web resources for server-based audio delivery? If you know of some good pages or sites, I'd appreciate your emailing me offlist with them.

The orchestra seats for that show cost $100 (the nosebleed seats are about half that). Bad economy -- what bad economy? :-P - --Sue ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2003 23:51:36 -0700 From: Jessica Byers Subject: Kinzaza Anyone ever heard of Kinzana? They're pretty cool.... I just discovered them while checking out new submissions to my radio station... Kind of ethereal ambient groove pop or something... Really interesting web site. This is from their site: Meet Kin Za Za! A duo of multidisciplinary artistry-the most cinematic act in indie music today. Welcome to a musical landscape of quirked imagination, outlandish freedom and untwisted truth. so among other things we are fans of multi-fusion, multi-layers, multi-resonance, "multi-co-existing-clashes-happily". We search for complexities beyond our own understanding. We believe in the reason in free association; the intellect of the heart; the spirit of the tongue; the eye of the ear. The cycle of recycling and beyond. We do trust nature, we try not to insult its intelligence, and we hope this becomes transparent in the music we make...Rational explanation pretends it is all and whole when it is only ever partial. No one knows the exact nature of nature, reality, or art, and so every mind has a legitimate, partial view on the subject. Moreover, music like love is a poem that does not explain. AMEN!... http://www.kinzaza.com/ ------------------------------ End of ecto-digest V9 #86 *************************
