> Why mp3s are really the way to go: i completely support this idea of "media-less" content. (it's not really media-less since it sits on a hard drive, which is a medium.) but the problem with mp3's is bandwidth. so far it's the best solution i suppose, but there's another interesting format that has a lot of potential: headspace's beatnik. http://www.beatnik.com. it offers cd-quality audio, and the file sizes rarely exceed 100k. go here for a look at what the future of music distribution can look like: http://home.earthlink.net/~phlow/file01.htm it's a link to the 4-song compilation ep called 'file01', first in a series called 'kromode', featuring bochum welt and kim cascone. i just hope that soon a system will be in place that will allow anyone who can create content to be able to distribute it.
