Jonathan Coulton, Muxtape vs. Mixwit, Rock Band vs. iTunes
Wednesday, June 4th, 2008 running time 09:46
After a long hiatus, we are back with a ton of news and contributions from MIX, plus we're announcing our licensing partnership with the good folks at Revision3! This week's FU is served by Jonathan Coulton, the ultimate geek rock star.
We've also got music stars afraid of the Internet, music stars using video games to sell records, we take a look at music-sharing tools like Muxtape and Mixwit, and we hear your thoughts about the problems with global communication. The FU is back!
