This morning, I start up Radio@Netscape, and they want me to upgrade to a new version, and this version is going to expire if I don’t. So I do.
The new version, looks bad (far less professional looking), the sound quality’s dropped (I don’t have normally have an ear for these things, so that’s how stunning the change was) and the buttons you click don’t actually respond the first time you click them. But it has more room for ad banner space, so mission accomplished.
It’s still music, and free music, and I still get the stations I want so I go along with it. I take off my headphones for a while to do other stuff, and when I come back, the music stops. Which isn’t unexpected, because the old version would prompt you ever 31 or 51 songs to check if you were still there and perhaps looking at their ad banner.
Except that’s not the prompt. According to the new prompt, I’ve reached my limit of free music for the day (at two hours?) and if I want more, I have to pay for AOL Broadband to listen for any more than that per day.
What a rip – from “really good, as long as you want (to click)” to “eh, for two hours” with no warning. Need new music again. Time to bebop around on http://www.radio-locator.com/ and listen to music from Alaska.
Well, the job fair was a complete waste of time but at least I got to see this fine lookin’ hispanic girl with a really nice ghetto booty while I was getting lost in the city.
And all of you need to check out WGU and watch the reaction the crowd gives Jeff Hardy…

Geez Louise…I’ve never been a Jeff fan, but he didn’t deserve that.
