Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Rather interesting opinion article on the Bittorrent stuff: [link] Says that the MPAA's actions are just going to incite hackers to come up with a better tool--say, a version of Bittorrent that's decentralized.
And this CNET article says that the Nova that was supr folks are already working on one: [link]
as of November, 35% of all traffic on the Internet was BitTorrent-related
Wow.

Sorry, guys!
Wasn't November when Bittorent added porn?

I've heard that stat a lot. I've also seen it disputed.
Where/how is the best place to get one song online? I've seen you mention various places, but I'm willing to drop a dollar or so just to get a copy of Ozzy's "Mama I'm Comin' Home." I've got a dial-up connection on Win98 with IE6. There's got to be some place that panders to my run-of-the-mill setup.
Have you tried iTunes?
Which reminds me -- MusicMatch JukeBox has a super-tagging feature which tries to look up an MP3 in the CDDB based on its filename. Very good for clearing up stuff that was sloppily tagged.
I can't find that functionality in iTunes. Does it exist?
Not tried anyplace, yet. Figured I'd ask the experts.
Thing is, I'm not absolutely convinced SuprNova and the other tracker sites are doing anything illegal. The only thing they do is provide links to files hosted on other sites, and those files themselves don't constitute copyrighted material.
But that doesn't help the guys who host the tracker sites fight the lawsuits.

I can confirm that iTunes has several versions of this song available.
