Hey everybody, MP3.COM dies in 2 and a half hours! Woohoo! Is everyone excited? I know I am! Let's hear it for the wonderous corporate regard for art!

[everybody cheers]

Bloody thing. It's amazing how quickly the end came, and it's interesting how aggravated it makes me.

Yes... life and art are even more endangered than the panda.

You are daft? The Panda is like the fruitfly and the Britney Spears-clone combined compared to art.

T-Minus 2 hours and 10 minutes til corporate liftoff!

I'd like to take credit for it, but it's loosely based on a sig I saw in a newsgroup somewhere several years back, and thought it was brilliant.

"Please be advised that on Tuesday, December 2, 2003 at 12:00 PM PST the MP3.com website will no longer be accessible in its current form."

It's the end of the site as we know it,
It's the end of the site as we know it,
It's the end of and age as we know it,
now we whiiiiiiiiiiiine.

And I whine too.

T-Minus 1 hour 57 minutes.

"Please be advised that on Thursday, April 8, 2004 at 12:00 PM PST the nation of North Korea will no longer be accessible in its current form."

What an age in which we reside.

WNET's press release regarding the matter? Oh, if only they had such deadpan pinache in the White House. If only.

T-Minus 95 minutes.

ACTUALLY, it's still up. I suppose there was a mad rush at exactly midnight PST to see if it was actually gone. I'm about to refresh it freely now.

Them bastards just took the wind right outa my sails!

I love how topics (not necessarily this one) evolve to where Mosc has to move them to another forum. He needs to implement a heuristic algorithmic moderation applet that automatically moves the threads as necessary and somehow dings the poster(s) for improper posting.

...incidentally, and back on-topic, mp3.com IS now gone, replaced with a "well meaning" "Welcome to your future source for music online!" page. Oh well.

<sigh>
