Whither HD VMD?
Now that HD DVD is dead, all that needs to be done is to sink Blu-ray and let the kazillion-layer disc take its rightful place! Yet, I hear not a peep about HD VMD. Conspiracy? Mel Gibson and I think so. ;)

Well actually on iTunes prices
Molly,
All iTunes singles are back to 99 cents (even the DRM free). Apple talked EMI to drop the price after the Amazon DRM free store launch.

Hey, here's an idea
Hi,
As you're currently at CES and...Veronica is currently at CES after listening to the Best of 2007 show, I want Veronica back on as a guest. Keep up the great show.
Ben, Ireland.
