Hey shy guys n girls, how was your weekend? That’s cool. I’m typing “that’s cool” without waiting to hear back from you because weekends are, on the whole, pretty great with such regularity that I’m fairly certain you had a nice time chilling and relaxing. But correct me if I’m wrong on that assumption. Anyhoo…
We gotta talk abt a serious issue. It’s so serious I’m surprised the prezzy candidates aren’t chatting abt it on “The View.” The issue is DRM, which stands for Dumb Restrictions (on) MP3s. A few people have noticed that Jon HAVENS otherwise lovely mix was hamstrung by some lame Apple-sponsored DRM. Fuck you Stevie Jobs.
Now, I know the average shy guy/girl is heavily vested in the Apple Way-of-Life so this may come as a shock 2 your personal brand. While they do make some great products like the maccy lappytop and the jesusPhone, Apple is not very hip when it comes to MP3s. They have these weird rules abt how many times you can copy a file around or whatever, I dunno. Also I hate how I can’t plug in my jesusPhone to a friend’s lappy and grab the newest Soulwax remix of MGMT - Kids (good jam btw)
Anyhoo…
Shyness Is Nice is all about sharing and caring so we’d like to encourage you to share only DRM free MP3s.
Where can you find DRM free mp3s? Amazon’s site is pretty good but there’s others like Rhasody and Walmart too. You know you’re being a dbag abt digital rights management when fucking Walmart is doing better than your silhouetted draconian ass. Or, as an alternative, you can burn a CD from Itunes then rip it back to mp3 (this method takes effort and can make the sound quality crappier :( )
