Lots of places are reporting that Amazon are selling music from every member of the ‘big four’ as DRM free mp3s. Can’t quite believe it’s happened but it’s not before time. Anyone dare to predict whether the p2p/torrent hordes can be persuaded to return to legal music purchases? Perhaps it’s enough to entice new downloaders who haven’t discovered p2p or torrents yet as computer based home entertainment systems and media centres become more common.

I’ve been checking out videos and reviews for World in Conflict, looks like a blast. Anyone checked it out?

el oh el. In other news, if you haven’t played Portal yet then do. Thanks Penny Arcade.

I’m having difficulties getting through to customer services on 0845 454 1111. I can navigate the menus (joy) but get a (engaged?!) beeping noise when I would expect to be put on hold for 1/2 hour. Any other Virgin customers experiencing the same?

Thanks to Engadget for their ongoing CES news. Check out this new 52″ multitouch display (video)!

More Optimus Maximus love. Thanks Engadget.
