Another pillar of my musical foundations, The Stooges' first album is one those records whose influence far outweighed its popularity. Like The Velvet Underground & Nico, hordes of people wh

Pressure Chief, Cake's latest album, didn't immediately grab me. In fact, it took perhaps half a dozen listens before I started truly enjoying it. Any

- Massive Attack
"Black Milk" knocks me off my feet in this collection of moody and eclectic songs. Massive Attack uses samples and keyboards in a very unique way, but not all the songs pack the same punch.

TubeSock gets YouTube Videos Onto iPod [UPDATED]
Wednesday, August 30th, 2006 at 3:00 PM - by Brad Cook
StinkBot has released TubeSock, a utility that converts YouTube videos into iPod-, Mac-, or PlayStation Portable-ready versions. It takes the popular site's FLV format and turns it into H.264, MP4, or MP3, automatically determining the appropriate bitrate and naming convention for the target device.
TubeSock can import the videos into iTunes and can also save just the audio portion so it can be listened to on a non-video iPod. In addition, TubeSock can install bookmark scripts in Safari and Firefox, enabling users to bookmark favorite videos and have them appear in the utility.
Pricing is US$15. Mac OS X v10.3.9 and iTunes 6.0 are required.
3:44 PM, 9/1/06: Updated article with correct pricing. Those responsible for the incorrect pricing have been sacked. We apologize for any inconvenience.
