the link came way of my brother, Misha.

Now, I know most of you are smart enough to have found ways around ever buying a pop music CD again anyway, or dont listen to stuff that would involve this issue. Nonetheless, Its pretty messed up! I for one, will never buy another sony product again, at least until there is some official appology. Its one thing if they make it explicit through press releases and product packaging, but this sort of cladestine consumer control is rediculous.

In other news, Clem's flights out of Christchurch were turned back 2 days in a row due to bad weather at McMurdo. So, he's not even on antarctica as of this post. I am trying to remain productive in spite of his absence, but am beginning to get anxious. Who would have ever thought that I would be anxious to see Clem again ;)
