- Rush
- We all know it, right? Well, ya just gotta have it. 2112 finally showed Rush out on their own, doing their own thing, and doing it well, IMHO.
- The Damned
- Punk rock is mostly associated with three chords and a bad attitude, but the Damned were one of the few bands of the era bent on bringing musicianship and a good sense of humor to the scene. And while
- The Church
Another of my all-time favorites, Priest = Aura is one of those rare albums where every song is simply fantastic, and a testament to how good pop-rock can be.

- Prefuse 73
- It's an album about a breakup, done with beats instead of mopey lyrics. But the beats are raw, and the emotions are there, even if there aren't many words on top of it. While possibly not Scott Herren

Digging Deeper Into Apple TV
Thursday, January 11th, 2007 at 2:00 PM - by John Martellaro
SAN FRANCISCO -- iPodObserver.com has learned more about Apple's newly renamed AppleTV, including some details about networking options, what kind of content can be shown through the unit and more.
1. In addition to an AirPort base station, a standalone Macintosh with an Airport card can be configured to connect directly, point-to-point, with an Apple TV.
2. 802.11n is not strictly required. Video can be transmitted using the 802.11g protocol.
3. The 720p output mode matches the resolution of most HDTVs already purchased, and the Apple TV price point is based on 720p hardware technology.
4. Apple's technical specification page for the Apple TV makes no mention of HDMI 1.2 or 1.3. When the product actually ships, we'll know more.
5. Only content contained within iTunes can be transmitted to the Apple TV. However, any H.264 or MPEG-4 file can be dragged into iTunes and made available to the Apple TV.
6. Movie content on DVDs is copy protected. There is no formal mechanism to allow movies on DVD to become part of the iTunes library.
