I totally agree with every thing the previous poster said. We need to get as active as we can to save Internet Radio. Call a congressperson TODAY. I love my Pandora, and cannot think about all the great music I'd be missing out on if t were to disappear all together. To put my two cents worth in, I think the RIIA should embrace Internet Radio. Its one of the most effective ways to introduce new and unique artists, ones that may not be able to get played on terrestrial radio. Just my two cents worth, but I needed to say it! And before it disappears all together check out Pandora. It's Music Genome may hype you to stuff you've never thought of listening to before.

Many commercial stations broadcast on the internet, but yes have to agree with the internet-only broadcasters that they still need to stick around to show new artists and the like.

Alex's 1,000th Post Topic
(7) When I first joined trap17 almost 3 years ago, I really had no idea that I'd still be here today
posting. I was looking for a free hosting mainly because I didn't have a job, and I didn't
want to ask my parents for money for hosting a website. As soon as I was making income, I moved on
to paid hosting, and I thought at that point I would never return to trap17. And I did go away for
a while, only coming back to ask the occasional question, however I did something I never would have
guessed that I would do: I started posting regularly on trap17, not for fr....
The Internet Where Everyone Is Equal
The only place you can be really equall (11) Years ago... I was surfing through web, chating with people. Anyway, someone was wrong and I had
to correct him :P So we exchanged messages then I learned he's a middle aged man. That hit me.
To that point, in my mind he too also a teenager. So I kinda fell remorse, I felt like i acted
disrecpectull to an elder. Just think about it, our minds cant talk to a monitor so we create an
avatar for the people we talk on web. But because we know so little things about them, our mind
copies our own identity. So that's why we are absolutely equal on web. It doesnt mat....

I'm just trying to steal your organs, but read the topic anyway. (2) A length ways shot of the two turntables (TT1610) surrounding the mixer (DM950). Yup,
after a lot of planning and deciding I finally got my Turntables. I was inspired after seeing alot
of work on them; I heard alot of 'Grandmaster Flash' as a kid and just recently I've
been impressed with ' DjRavine '. Another Christmas present, a fantastic and
underrated remix. I was given the following records as a present: Sugarhill - Rappers Delight

What Would You Do If....
This is an easy topic =P (1) You felt hands choking you from behind? I would first make sure it's not someone pranking me. If
it wasn't, then I would probably budge into their stomache and run for a little before I turn
and fight back. You couldn't tell if you were dreaming or not? I'd probably just see if I
can find things out for myself. When you're dreaming you just sit back and watch the show, but
in real life you can find things out for yourself. You woke up in a small, metal box? I don't
know WHAT I would do, because you can't really even move around, let alone br....

web servers would be stars, and backbone computers would be galaxies. Backbone computers than again
are just main bandwith carriers around the world, and they couldn't be compared to galaxies
beacouse galaxies are more kind of a collections of stars, and then all web servers would....

My Thoughts On Why Internet Explorer Is So Popular.
(18) I see little point in the "What browser do you use?" topic except to discuss the pros and cons of
different browsers. It's obvious that most people will use Internet Explorer because almost all
computers that are bought for people or sold to them are pre-loaded with Some version of Windows, in
which the only browser is Microsoft's own, Internet Explorer. And since a big proportion of
first-time computers users are not so computer savvy and do not become so because they do not really
need to, they will use what they are given. In the internet Cafe I am typing....

Internet Laws
what are they? (11) The internet is a great source of information and entertainment brought into our homes within the
last few years. It plays in important role to many individuals and businesses, but how many people
actually know what/not to do on the Internet? It isnt something I'm particularly hung up on or
afraid of since im certain that nothing I do regarding the internet is illegal, but it is true that
an increasing number of people are getting arrested for Internet crime. Not to have a debate about
what is right or wrong here, but surely the rules are written down somewhere? T....

someone says on the net at "face value" ... and believe it. ..then the "wrong" idea gets inside
your head .. and can make you "stupid". Some associated questions to think about: Who do you believe
as an authority on a subject ???? Who do you trust?? How do know when to trust them? How many "blind
