Also they are running a contest where all you have to do is...

Limited Edition Digital Music
continuations: This is another post in thinking out loud about the economics of abundant and digital goods.  In particular, I am interested in mechanisms that allow producers to recapture some of the consumer surplus even when the price for (a version of) the good is zero. In photography, there is a well established difference between limited edition prints (sometimes a single one) made by the...

MLB.TV is Incredible →
Great article on the MLB Media team.  They are consistently ahead of everyone in distributing their content.  I watched a bit of last nights game on MLB.TV, and they’re getting close to perfect for live streaming sporting events.

Digg's URL Shortner Hack
