Didn't work out too well, because of the price (compared with SD, for example). Now they seem to back off a bit by allowing the PS3 to swallow basically anything. And now Microsoft seems to attempt to put forward another proprietary format. At least, they did not announce support for existing ones. That is strange to me :) Shouldn't Microsoft be the more open one? ---sgt--- ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 May 2005 06:38:10 -0700 (PDT) From: Mike Patrick To: ytsejam@torchsong.com Subject: Re: Octavarium Message-ID: Just as an fyi - there are poorly-recorded radio edits of 'Panic Attack' and 'These Walls' floating around out there. I'm a fanboy, so my opinion doesn't count, other than to say I'm not disappointed with either. And I think the whole secrecy thing is a little over the top, but it's not my band, so...
