Oh goody! A new Chirp mix! I am downloading it right now.
Chirp releases about three freely downloadable samplers of beautiful indie-rocky / poppy music a year. Their track record is impeccable, so go grab it, too!

“I don’t know about you but whenever I read a blog I do not let my eye drop below half the screen in case I accidentally hit the bit where the comments reside. Of all the stinking, sliding, scuttling, weird, entomological creatures that inhabit the floor of the internet those comments on blogs are the most unbearable, almost beyond imagining,” he added, getting into his stride and echoing comments made by fellow comedian David Mitchell earlier this year about the standard of online commentary.
In some (most?) cases he’s right. From time to time though a comment thread proves worthwhile.

More and more LP’s contain a code for downloading the album as high quality DRM-free mp3′s or lossless files. Some even contain the CD of the album. This is a really sweet solution: You get digital files to put on your mp3 player and vinyl for listening at home.
Why not buy the CD in the first place? Ever since spindles of 50 CD’s were available in every Aldi the CD lost its perceived value. The LP is a much more pleasant / pleasing physical object to own.
