They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

It's gotta be tough, no doubt, but doing interviews about how tough it is while trying to get famous strikes me as... disingenuous?

Sheepish

I broke Buffistarawk! I decided to take advantage of my parent's high speed connection to download some songs, and somewhere nearing 20 songs, I got a note saying that the account was suspended for 24 hours due to "unusual usage." So I'm saying, my bad, and letting people know what it going on.

Sorry about that chief.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Merry Christmas.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Probably inevitable... or only temporarily evitable.

I mean, if they care about "unusual usage," there's probably a lot about the usage of that account that's been "unusual" for months now....

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I just got that message, Sue, and was coming here to see if we knew anything about it. My guess is that it has more to do with the number of people who have been accessing it lately, or accessing it at the same time, rather than the number of songs downloaded by any one person.

I admit, I haven't read the TOS, but are we actually using the account in a way that we're not supposed to?

Yeah, the TOS talks about infringing on others intellectual property rights.
