BLAM+BLAMen

BLAM Deluxe is leaked for purchase on iTunes.
...Dang it, I am so so weak when it comes to this band. (Although this time my weakness is tempered a bit by the knowledge that I can now un-DRM them, so I can actually listen to them in Ubuntu without having to re-encode. Hooray!)

heh. you and [livejournal.com profile] silveradept would get along well...he runs ubuntu, and tried to install it on my Vaio, but my wifi wasn't quite working with it :(


and thanks for the heads up on the BLAM!

Wireless support is really by far the weakest link in the whole Linux situation at the moment. I got stuck in Windows for most of last year because of it. There are supposedly a bunch of solutions in the pipe, but at the moment basically either your card's going to work great right away or it's just not going to work at all.

And no prob about the heads-up. :)

I know! It actually really amuses me because iTunes is the big "professional" store, yet this sort of thing keeps happening (apparently it's happened several times to other artists too). I hope the guys had a big clause in their contract with Apple about breaking street date!

YEah. it was really weird. it worked at Alex's house on the unsecured, but tanked out at my house on my WPA network....but was fine being hard wired into the router. MCUCH aggrivation was had by all.
