Sounds like fun, but I'd rather sound like myself. So I recorded this <a href="http://mp3.morningcoffeenotes.com/thisHasBeenATest.mp3">test file</a> at 64K bps to see if it cures the problem. Does it? Thu, 22 Feb 2007 20:01:00 GMT http://www.scripting.com/2007/02/22.html#When:12:01:00PM <a href="http://flyingmeat.com/">Flying Meat Software</a>. What else is there to say?

NPR just has to embrace the new media. NPR.org isn't that important. Upload segments of each show to YouTube. Give advance copies of big shows like Frontline to the bloggers that review the shows. </p> <p>And Doc had the best idea of all, provide the "Alpha Torrent Seed" for all PBS shows. It should always be possible to download their shows immediately. Why not, they're non-commercial. Brilliant. </p> <p>The secret isn't that hard to figure out, they did it with podcasting, just apply the same formula. </p>
