• Finally some choice

  The wait is finally over! It only took more than two and a half year but since yesterday Amazon MP3 is now also finally available in Austria :D It naturally still comes with its own little downloader application (which is at least available on Windows, OSX and Linux) but that didn't prevent me from spending 15 EUR with them right away. Currently they have a huge selection of albums for sale - at a price about half of what Apple wants - so I just couldn't resist :-)

  Now I'm just waiting for either Apple or Amazon to give me access to international tracks :-)

• Some luck

  On our weekly shopping tour where I wanted to get at least one game anyway something quite funny happend. While having a quite intense eye-contact with the PS2-version of Prince of Persia I noticed Beyond good and evil lying right next to it. When I first saw the price I thought "Can't be" and checked it again... 29.90EUR :D

  Ok, now I will have something for the last days of my winter vacations :D It's quite a funny game but some things start to get on my nerves... or one thing but this quite intense: The german synchronization. The whole story is IMO very interesting and all of that, but somehow whoever made the synchronization must have been veeeery bored. Besides that the game is really well done. Nice story, nice gameplay and very short loading-times. Overall I think I will have a nice time.

• Sony D-NE 1

  As the title already indicates I haven't baught Panasonic's CDDA/MP3-Portable but one by Sony. I won't go into much detail here because I really like Panasonic, but a little bit more and faster support for european customers would be really nice ;-)

  But now to the D-NE1: Really a nice player. It comes with a docking station , 2 rechargeable batteries, a remote control with display, a small bag and earphones. On some webpages I saw pictures of it with some really old- and cheap-looking headphones but Sony seems to have read some product reviews and/or customer feedback and replaced them (I haven't tested them not yet though as I already have Sony earphones with bass-booster ;-) )

• KoRn - Greatest Hits Vol. 1

  After adding some CDs to my music collection last week I want to write at least a short review about one of them: The first greatest hits collection of KoRn. I only have 2 albums of KoRn before getting this collection but I really came to like this band because of their quite unique style of Rock and also because of Jonathan Davis' vocals.

• LimpBizkit.com ...

  Today I wanted to check the website of one of my favorite bands (guess who ;-) ) for perhaps some information about a new album or something like that. But what did I find? A more or less blank page hosted on blogger.com and and a new domain ( forgetthepain.com ).

• NIN: With Teeth

  After reading some good reviews about this album I decided to give the Nine Inch Nails a try. So I went to the next record store this morning and got their new album "With Teeth". Since this is my first album of this band please bear with my lack of background information ;-) I only knew the name before and I also knew the soundtrack of Quake 1.

• MS teaming up with MTV to battle iTunes?

  According to this Microsoft seems to have reached an agreement with MTV to create a service directly battling Apple's iTunes. That actually made me chuckle ... I mean, I don't know what MTV is like in the USA or anywhere else in the world, but the german version is simply trash. It's like you have to make a party everytime they actually play a music video. All the time you get only cheap shows and mediocre to really simply stupid cartoons.
