Wow, old story. And it's only five years old, not six. Despite what the author of the story said.

Wow, six short years and they are the leading source of music! That's one hell of a business module.

Hurray for iTunes! I couldn't live without it and all the music that you can't find anywhere else. Thank goodness they started providing DRM-free options at the same price!!And I'll be cautiously optimistic (is that the right phrase?) about the Facebook redesign, because it would be very difficult to redesign a dynamic community like that... and have a majority of people like it. :)

kcwebgirl: hahahaha. I so agree with you. Facebook has become ridiculous and annoying and I hardly use the site. We'll see how this update really works.

Wow. I'm not sure if I thought ITunes was older or much younger...?

i'm not sure how to respond to the facebook update. it has consistently gone from normal to horrendous with each new application addition. it's terrible that a once clean profile page now looks like the html vomit you find all over myspace.
