Interesting thing about the move this time. It forced me to take a look at my communication options. Did I want to switch my standard ATT Home service to the new apartment, or should I just try and survive on the celly? With all the taxes and surcharges you pay for a home phone, plus long distance, it was costing me more a month for the phone in the house than the one I'm carrying around. I remember in the early 90's it was the other way around. Carrying a cell phone was much more expensive. How times have changed.

State of the Industry: Old vs. New
On Saturday, I was walking through Brooklyn Heights and I ran into Davey Inglehoff, and indy crossover radio promotion rep I knew from back in the X-Mix, Armand Van Helden days. We got to talking about the state of the industry and Davey let me know how it is from the inside looking out. Basically, he imparted that if you're on the inside, your world keeps getting smaller and smaller. Lot's of people out of work and those who are left are scrambling to try to figure out the digital music industry, which bypassed them in 2004 as iTunes garnered its 100 millionth download.
