Sunday, May 31 2009: Why AOL Sucks
I got a raise in December, so like a good consumer I bought a new Dell.
On my old Dell, I had the last version of Winamp prior to AOL purchasing it - with automatic updates turned off. The install file for that version of Winamp got lost in the great Windows Re-Installing of '08. So, last night (um, last night ws sometime back in January and this post has been sitting in limbo since because MARVIN couldn't serve files to outside visitors) I downloaded the latest version of Winamp 5 from their website and installed it.
There is a demo.mp3 that installs with Winamp for the purposes of a) being cool and b) testing that your install completed successfully.
demo.mp3 pre-AOL
demo.mp3 post-AOL
AOL sucks.
