Sound and Vision

[andrewducker]

I'd been thinking about AllOfMp3.com for a while - I mean, sure, it's completely unethical - but seeing as I'm just using it to download music that they won't let me have legally (i.e. Napster doesn't have it), I refuse to feel bad about it.  So when purelyskindeep mentioned it was pretty darn good, I decided to give it a go.  And it is - there's still lots of gaps, but I managed to find a couple of albums I wouldn't otherwise have.

I recommended G-Force to him, which will happily keep me hypnotised for whole track's at a time.  It synchronises well with the music and manages to have just the right rate of change through different animations - not long enough for you to get bored, not so short that you can't take in all the details.

In response he recommended R4 - which doesn't synchronise so well, but has some lovely 3D effects.

Both of them have standalone versions that will work with any sound source you like - and G-Force has a free version - plus a $10 paid version, which frankly is so cheap that it's hard to say no to.

If I'm going to be paying to acquire music, I either like to download the cds, make sure I like the artist, go to a concert of his, and then buy the disks *from him*, so that he actually gets it. Worked for the locrian. I very, very rarely buy cds from the high street- I hate the record companies with a passion, and will either spite the RIAA via udp and tcp packets; or, as I've just discovered, find the local library very, very good indeed :D.
