Our latest Post on MWD – Don’t steal hope from Haiti
Geek Shui Living just published our most recent post on the technology news website, MWD.com. Following is an excerpt:
On January 22, 2010, the Apple iTunes Store made available for purchase the Hope for Haiti Now album. Included in the $7.99 purchase are 20 songs, from various artists who participated in the January 22nd Telethon. Airing simultaneously, on over 60 major and cable networks, performances included notable artists, such as John Legend, Beyonce, Bruce Springsteen, Jay-Z, Bono, Dave Matthews, and Neil Young, just to name a few.
What does all of this have to do with technology? Well, most technophiles, like myself, rarely visit a music store to buy albums. Instead, we depend on electronic sources, like the Apple iTunes Store. Many, though, choose to visit an alternate store that I like to call “The Special Internet Store”. Its a magical place where music, movies, and other digital media are offered at steeply discounted (as in 100%) prices. The only labor required is usually through the installation and configuration of the Peer-to-Peer (P2P) file sharing or Bit Torrent applications.
