SONY BMG MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT - cp.sonybmg.com/xcp

Quick update - this is a link to a definitive list of the titles that were affected by the "rootkit" software you may have heard about. If you bought one of these CDs, you can not only get a copy of it without the security software in a direct exchange, but I've read that Sony is considering offering cash back or up to three free albums worth of downloads as compensation for the trouble.

Also, if you have one of these titles and you've played the CD on your computer (or ripped the files to your computer), there are instructions on how to uninstall the software that you probably didn't know existed but could be compromising your system's security.

Why Do I Do This?

I was originally inspired by the Web log posted on the site for Propellerhead Software. They developed a cool 808 emulator which eventually morphed into an entire digital audio workstation package (Reason). Those early posts documented their development process and gave a human insight into their struggles. It was cool. So, I bought some hosted space and figured out FrontPage to put a rudimentary site together. My goal was to connect my family, but then realized this could be a great way for me to keep track of happenings over time. Eventually, the manual, HTML journal gave way to this Blogger setup - much easier to deal with, and not bound to one computer.

Ultimately, this is more about nothing than an episode of Seinfeld, but I appreciate that you've read this far. Really.
