Today is the Day of Silence for Internet radio. In response to the recently increased royalty fees in the copyright court Internet radio operators are turning off programming to draw attention to the matter and hopefully create a movement to overturn the ruling. To learn more check out Kurt Hanson's site. Thomas had a question about DL.TV and Cranky Geek episodes and TiVo Video-on-demand. He wanted to know why the episodes seem a bit behind what is currently online. The short answer is that we need to reformat the video for TiVo's service which requires another lengthy re-render of the show. This is done after the other encoding is done for the downloads. Hopefully we should be able to generate this on a more regular basis as we work up a regular schedule. Folding@Home update as we continue to work towards the top ranks Robert gives the lowdown on where the DL.TV Folding@Home effort is at and where we're headed. Anti-iPhone. The iPhone is hot and it's not even out yet!! But if you don't buy into the Apple PR machine or just want a non-white but still chic mobile there are alternatives. With some help from PC Mag's Sasha Segan Anti-iPhone story we give some great reasons not to stand in line at 6pm Friday night. Robert and Roger present their highlights from the NASCAR race this past Sunday Infineon Raceway. Special thanks to the Dan Patin at NASCAR Images, and Chucke. Viewer, Stephen, has recommended a couple of free encoding options for those wanting to take saved FLVs and turn them into something more media center friendly. So give Media Encoder and Super a try, and let us know how they work for you. Happy B-day to the man, the myth, the on vacation, Patrick Norton. Hope he and his family are enjoying the drive to Colorado.
