SignOnSanDiego.com > News > Business -- Tower going way of vinyl records
The music could be about to die at Tower Records.

Four major music conglomerates have cut off compact disc shipments and frozen credit lines to the 89-store chain, possibly heralding the end of the brick-and-mortar music superstore.

Tower, which emerged from bankruptcy in 2004, has been hit hard by mass-market discounters like Wal-Mart, Internet music sales and a shift by some consumers to digital downloading. The 46-year-old company, which also licenses 144 stores overseas, has been unable to attract a buyer for its format.

EMI Group, Sony BMG Music Entertainment, Warner Music Group and Universal Music Group stopped sending CDs to Tower stores within the past two weeks after Tower missed debt payments to the companies, according to label sources.

The bulky, squarish, heavy picture tube, the standard television technology for more than 60 years, is heading for the dustbin of history much faster than anyone expected.

This year, the number of TV models in the United States that use glass cathode-ray tubes to produce an image has been reduced sharply. By next year, even fewer CRT televisions will be made, and fewer retailers will sell them.

After WinXP Sp3 runs its Course .Its Linux for me

The TWiT Podcast Network with Leo Laporte: "Micro$Hoft promises that Windows Vista, which is expected to ship in early 2007, will be the most secure version of Windows ever. They promised the same thing for XP, and it took five years to lock it down. Unfortunately, Micro$haft has decided to re-write the network stack from scratch for Vista, perhaps an understandable decision given the number of new technologies they'd like to support, but according to a recent study from Symantec, the new Vista stack re-introduces many of the flaws fixed in the old XP stack. Can an untried stack be trusted? Will Windows Vista be stronger or weaker? The study raises some questions which Steve addresses in this episode.

As of this point I am getting really sick and tired of Shelling out $99 bucks and playing Micro$haft Roulette wheel of insecurity Windows Genuine Disadvantage DRM of Fun-o-roma. That why, I am seriously Switching to a KDE base Linux Distros like Kubuntu, MEPIS, PCLinuxOS for all of my systems at home.

"Circuit City is offering a DVD transfer service that's sure to enrage the MPAA. For $10 for 1 DVD or $30 for 5, Circuit City will violate the DMCA and rip commercial DVDs for users to put on their mobile players. From the article: 'This should be a viable market. Software and services are losing out to draconian digital rights management philosophies and anti-consumer technologies aimed at increasing revenues stemming from double-dipping--what I call the industry's penchant for charging twice for the same thing.' They note that fair use backups of DVDs have not been tested in court because all of the attention is focused on the circumvention software itself.
