Maddow Gets Big Ratings, Beats Beck -- Covering Union Rights

vruz: and she didn’t even have to cry in public.

Cord cutters take note: You can download Maddow’s show for free in video and audio formats from the iTunes podcast directory. 

Recorded in 1958 at the Beat Hotel, rue Git le Coeur, Paris, on a UHER 4400 reel-to-reel recording machine, this record documents Brion Gysin’s important experiments in cut-up and recording technique.
Says Gysin:

“I made it to show Burroughs how, possibly, to use it. William did not yet have a tape recorder.Very soon after that, Burroughs was busy punching to death a series of cheap Japanese plastic tape recorders, to which he applied himself with such force that he could punch one of them to death inside a matter of weeks, days even.”

what kind of headphones do you use/would you recommend? my headphones have failed me and i'm going to GDC next week, so i need something for the plane.

these are what i have:

skullcandy seems to be questionable in quality, but i don't want to spend too much money.

any suggestions? — Asked by eversonpoe

I like the Audio-Technica QuietPoint ATH-ANC7 for blocking noise. The Sennheiser HD280 Pro is great if noise is not a factor. The Sennheisers have a weird, but not necessarily bad, fit. Audio-Technica has good customer support.
