Love, Hate, and Barenaked Ladies

I hate DRM. Absolutely hate it. I love Barenaked Ladies. (It's a music group, Mom. I'm not opening any closets.) Barenaked Ladies have always been great about making their music available for download without being burdened by DRM. A buddy at work recently pointed me to this article regarding Barenaked Ladies's latest album, Barenaked Ladies are Men, which is available FREE right now. The bad news? I just bought this album a few days ago, but you can still take advantage of this great deal on great music. Unfortunately, you'll have to wait until Aimie Street (the provider of the download) gets their site back up and running. (Maybe they should be using Windows Server 2003 and ASP.NET instead of the free OS, free web server, and PHP.)

This is just one of the cool ways you can enjoy Barenaked Ladies. If you visit their bootleg web site, you can download concert shows they've done and enjoy much more of this great group. Albums are affordable and high quality.

Lastly, you can join eMusic and get free MP3s as you try them out. If you like it, pay a little and get more non-DRM music. If you don't like it, cancel and keep the music you already have. eMusic has a lot of indie music (which is great,) but they're also starting to gain ground in the mainstream music area. Of course, bands like Barenaked Ladies who want people to actually buy their music are available on eMusic.

Thank goodness for an 80GB iPod. ;)
