Carried by migrating African Swallows, I suspect ;)

Clearly, since the European variety can't manage the necessary payload.

A big iNAY! for iTunes in all it's general turdiness.  What in particularly is iRking you today, Steve, I hear you ask?  Well, at the moment it's the annoying habit of treating any eponymous album as a 'Greatest Hits' when you add it to your library, and downloading the wrong artwork accordingly. >:(

I'm told I should be thankful if iTunes downloads any artwork at all, but I remain unconvinced...

While I acknowledge that iTunes is imperfect, I continue to revel in the fact that it sucks far less than RealPlayer.  The moral of the story is, if you start with crap, everything that comes afterward is a pleasant surprise.  Similarly, if I ever get involved with a woman who is consistently civil to me, I'll likely assume I've found a saint and marry her on the spot.   :-\

Het Kanon. Translated: The Canon.

You probably mean cannon, Mad, as a canon is more something that would ban that sorta beverage: "an ecclesiastical rule or law enacted by a council or other competent authority and, in the Roman Catholic Church, approved by the pope" - Dictionary.com  ;)

But else, apart from Guinness Draft (which I enjoy very much, especially when I'm thirsty), I tend to prefer beers in the 6-11% range, particularly Belgian beers, like Blue Chimay  8)


But why this, all of a sudden:

Long story.
Just leave it with that.

I have enough long stories with that theme that I just gave the statement my blanket agreement.   :(

Have you tried ripping using the gapless setting in Itunes?

You may then be able to burn it back gaplessly.

I know this isn't the point but at least you may be able to listen to it properly until a replacement arrives.

Thanks for the tip, Iggy,must give that a try, specially since Roadrunner is still incommunicado/not responding.

I think he OD'd on noodles  :P

But I miss him too  :)

One of his last statements was that the Room was a waste of time  :-\

But "you can checkout any time you like, but you can never leave!"

Dunno how many times I'v checked outta the Room .... and returned  ::)

Eesh, has it been that long?  I hope he just needed a breather and didn't check out of here for good.  I like the lad.   :(

Nay for my copy of Space Revolver coming with a big crack on the outer part of the CD.  Case and packaging were pristine, so the vendor is probably not to blame, but it's still irksome since I will have to try to get a replacement from them (the last package of noodles/song is marred).

This is why I still use physical media.
This is also why I still use Minidiscs.
This is also why I don't use iTunes!

Hm, I have progworld's 1300 best cd's - it's only you guys who have dumbass-albums  ;D

Currently I have no finances for further cd's, and honestly:  These 1300 albums really keep me fully entertained.

Once in a while I go out on MySpace and YouTube, but that's mainly for curiosity and to plan future purchases  :)

So -->

It has been brought to my attention (brought by me) that Steve is somewhat MIA.  ???

First Appel (he's doing fine by the way  ;)), then PH, now Steve. (i'm sure i'm forgetting a few).
