10/25   Does anyone know of a good RealAudio stream ripper for OS X?  Is
        Audio Hijack Pro still the best game in town? -dans

7/7     If you're interested in working at Lawrence Livermore National Lab,
        there are quite a few openings.  The first opening I heard about
        today was for working on parallel file systems in Linux, a good OS
        hacking job.  See it at: /csua/pub/jobs/LLNL.  However, there are
        always a lot of jobs for scientific programmers (Familiariry with
        Math, Physics, and/or biology are big pluses). There's also some sys

2/5     How do you organize your MP3s?
        \_ musicbrainz is a good idea in theory.  I think there's a Windows client.
        \_ /mp3/[A-Z]/Artist/Album/Artist - 01 - This Song.mp3
           \_ what program do you use?  (jukebox)
              \_ Winamp 2.91.  Played with iTunes, it's no good unless you have
                 complete ID3 tags on almost everything, and I don't.  I played

1/14    this is kinda cool: a plugin that automatically sets your yahoo
        away msg to the song you're playing in winamp.

        (won't work for the guy below... maybe someone can make one for
        iTunes.... or maybe a generic one? search some specified tree
        of music files and assume any open file-handle is being played?)

1/14    Has anybody else tried iTunes (the player) simply as a winamp
        substitute?  I'm nearly weeping at how *nice* it is.  Would someone
        kindly point me toward the kool-aid?
        \_ does it play mp3s, or does it need to convert to their format?
           \_ it plays mp3s.
        \_ what does it do that is so improved over winamp?

1/7     To the guy who was interested in listening to NPR/RealAudio on
        Linux/FreeBSD: http://www.live.com/mplayer

1/6     For those who listen to NPR via the web.  Is there anyway I can
        download the streaming programs into an  independent file so I can
        transfer them on my Palm PDA and listen to it while I commute?
        All their audio links are embedded in some sort of javascript
        which makes "save the link as" impossible.  Thanks in advance.

12/21   Whoever said Winamp 5 is not a resource hog should go to hell.
        I have a Pentium 3/600 MHZ labtop.  That thing eats up most of the
        CPU cycle. For those who want something light, go for Winamp 5 lite.
        Then again, I don't see any reason for upgrade to winamp 5 light from
        winamp 2.9x, since most of the cool features are in the "full" version
        \_ i run winamp 5 on a celeron 500, and it doesn't use more than 5%

12/18   Re: Winamp resource hog:  Winamp 5 seems to be doing better than 2 for
        me.  I use it to listen to soundtracks when playing games, and was
        having trouble with 2.  5 works great.
        \_ CPU-wise, Winamp 5 seems the same as Winamp2, same for resistance to
           skipping.  Winamp5 seems to use a few megs more memory.  All in all
           it's not bad, although it feels a little like it has feature-creep.
