Apple Wants to Open Song Vaults: "Only a fraction of the songs in music labels' catalogs are available for download on legal music sites. Apple is leading the charge to get many out-of-print gems online and available for sale." [Wired News]

Crude music service from Sony? -- Comment()
From Sony, the Hits and Misses: "Yes, kids, the train is leaving the station. It's the Online $1-a-Song Music Express, and your company had better be on it. Apple, Napster, Musicmatch, MusicNow, BuyMusic, RealNetworks, Dell, Microsoft and even Wal-Mart have either seats or reservations. You wouldn't want to be left behind. [...] That, apparently, was the thinking behind Sony Connect, the new online music service that opened for business on Tuesday. It's an easy-to-use but, in its debut version, almost embarrassingly crude imitation of the music services that preceded it."

A new way of scripting Cisco VPN -- Comment()
Someone commented anonymously my entry on scripting Cisco VPN. Thanks for this hint! [Cisco] vpnclient will honor a saved user name and password, but overwrites the config file and erases them. So you can also do something like this:#!/bin/sh cd $profiledir cp myprofile.saved.pcf myprofile.pcf vpnclient myprofilePut your username and password in the saved file:Username=myname UserPassword=mypassThis is for Linux but it should work the same.
