Internet Censorship — It’s All or Nothing

24 March 2008

There’s been several articles on sites like slashdot.org and CNN discussing attempts by companies to stop the spread of illegal downloads be it movies, music, pirated software or illegal pornography. The most recent of these was Comcast blocking BitTorrent on their cable internet network (link to story), while other providers such as Usenet services are [...]

WWWinamp v4.2 Build 2990

9 March 2008

Well, after about a week of off and on work the latest version of WWWinamp is ready!
