In the past year the number of web sites linking to free downloads and streaming music has exploded, meaning there are more ways than ever to get your music fix. Today I'll highlight the best web sites—and best search kung-fu—for finding ...

Google'a, geçtiğimiz aylarda YouTube üzerindeki telif hakları ödenmemiş videolar dolayısıyla dava açan Viacom'un kardeşi CBS, tam tersi bir yaklaşımla buraya reklam satışına başlıyor. Bahsi geçen gelirin şu an için video paylaşım devi için küçük sayılabileceğini belirten analistler, ancak şirketin medya dünyasına kendisini kabul ettirmesi açısından oldukça önemli olduğu konusunda uzlaşıyorlar.

These days, every gaming system in your living room better be able to do more than just play video games if it's going to earn its place next to your TV. The Xbox 360 makes for an excellent Media Center extender, and the original Xbox is the king of homebrew video-game-cum-media-boxes, but when it comes to expanding your home theater beyond gaming, the Wii has always been a bit light on functionality. The best thing ...

iPhone/iPod touch only: Simplify Media streams your entire iTunes music library directly to your iPhone or iPod touch over your Wi-Fi or cell network. Considering that the largest iPhone currently weighs in at 16GB and most of our music libraries are significantly larger, this one's got all kinds of obvious potential.

I've been doing this for a year or two now using Kplaylist and TCPMP on my WM phone. I like it because no special software. Kplaylist is just php/mysql and has a web interface for use on a regular desktop.

I had forgotten how impressive this little thing is. To be honest, I don’t see any reason to go with any other media box, AppleTV included. This thing costs less than two Benjamins and supports more formats and hardware out of the box than other media things can even dream of. If I owned a TV I’d definitely have one of these. Anyway, the reason I bring it up is that it’s getting an upgrade. ...

The interface is straightforward and simple, at least for experienced Last.fm users—launch the app, then choose from your "Recommended Radio" or enter an artist name to hear other tracks you might like. You can ban, skip, or "Love" tracks while they're playing, and get artist bios ...

Need empirical proof that you're listening to the same old artists over and over on music discovery site Last.fm? LastGraph, a slick little API app coded by Andrew Godwin, takes your Last.fm username and models it into revealing timeline graphs. Check out your overall listening frequency, and an eye-popping multi-color artist history timeline. The big caveat is that LastGraph must, for now, institute hold queues for data-gathering and timeline rendering. If you can keep your ...

Second, it can really only work on well-seeded torrents, meaning if you want to listen to something ...

YouTube has upgraded their embedded video interface to offer better navigation of related videos, easy access to embed code through the menu, and the ability to jump ahead in a video even when that section hasn't been downloaded yet. Saucy.
