via audiography: CDs may be going the way of the Dodo, some whining about the future of the music industry as people more and more go to electronic formats.

However, there appear to be some some bright spots on the horizon, including "subscription" music services like Rhapsody and Emusic that allow unlimited access to songs for a monthly fee, as opposed to Apple's "per track" business model. There also appears to be a growing resurgence in the beauty that is the vinyl record among true audiophiles seeking sound quality.

If you've raided Getty for icons or for your fansite and haven't ponied up a penny, you might want to start yanking down those pictures...as in yesterday.

Finally, Will Wheaton has his latest ST: TNG DVD commentary up at TV Squad. C'mon, people. It's for Part II of 'Encounter at Farpoint.' As always, expect a good time reading it.

Have you been reading the estimable Mr. Wheaton's fan-geek DVD commentary on Star Trek: The Next Generation?

If not, you're missing a (hilarious) treat.

He makes Television Without Pity look like fluffy kittens by comparison when it comes to snark (and no, he doesn't spare himself or Wesley the snark, either). It's better written and funnier to boot.

He's only on the first season, so he's still on the truly sucky episodes. Wheeee! I could waste days here.

Go. Read Now. You can thank me later.
