You on the NEW List of Digital Music Pirates – Check Your Status Here! Are You Positive?

Summary: Think no one knows what you’ve downloaded off the Internet with BitTorrent? Think again.

People have privacy delusions about the Internet. They seem to think that just because they don’t sign their real name to a site that no one can see what they’ve been doing on it. Oh dear. So dumb, so wrong.The latest example of what you do on the Internet is no where near as “private” as you think it is comes from a new Russian site, YouHaveDownloaded.

Google Music Beta Launched

We are so excited to hear about Google’s latest Music release which stands to compete directly with Apple’s iTunes.  We have requested an invitation to the service and will keep you updated but from the sound of it, the services promises to make your music collection available, anytime, anyplace, without having to worry about wires, etc.  This sounds perfect to us and we have been waiting for an integrated cloud solution for a while now.  Plus, we know this will be a big money maker for Google. Think of all of the music collections in the world and how much they could stand to make on storage alone.
