That’s my leaf, beotch!

Amazon’s new digital store has been launched and doesn’t employ any DRM technologies. This means that the music plays on any player. Yay! Freedom. Most files are $0.89, and albums are priced $4.99 - $9.00+. iTunes has some non-DRM files too, but only a portion of its catalogue, and at a premium price of $1.29. Amazon has them on bitrate too - besting them at 256kps.

In fact, the only thing that has been much of a quibble is that the MP3s are watermarked by Amazon, which only ID where they were purchased, not who purchased them. But I suspect that it will be trivial to strip out.

Good job, Bezos. You gave Apple the only thing they couldn’t compete with - an agenda not to just sell iPods - but every single player on the market. A bold stroke of genius. Very cunning of you.

Martin Scorsese has committed to direct an untitled documentary about the life of George Harrison.

Now this is a movie of Martin’s we can look forward to seeing. And the Beetles still breathing are talking about participating. This is one to keep on your radar. As a young lad, Oliver Stone introduced me to Jim Morrison and The Doors. Here’s hoping Scorsese will do the same for George Harrison (02/24/1943 – 11/29/2001) and the Beetles.

Yes, sadly, I’m not very familiar with their catalogue. But there’s hope. After Stone’s movie, intrigued by what I heard on the soundtrack, I discovered the entire Doors’ back catalog.
