it turns out i have free access to inside.com, by way of my subscription to brill's content. but it won't let me log in, and their email support system (powered by tightlink) won't let me send them email. damn them! maybe i should just complain to kurt andersen and steven brill directly.

furthermore, a one-year subscription to brill's content, which includes access to inside.com, is $23.95. a one-year subscription to inside.com costs $39.00. i'm sure that makes sense to someone, somewhere.

now i know where to go if i ever want to simulate the experience of running windows again. (thanks doc.)

gotta love media bias: zdnet says "napster crackdown fails to spur cd sales". why not "napster crackdown results in fewer cd sales"? there's no evidence of causation either way.
