Fresh Ears

The other day, I head this song that I absolutely loved. It was fresh, upbeat and very catchy. I wanted to download it to my Zune immediately, but then I realized something. I haven't listened to music in the past week. Why? Well, I listen to more podcasts these days than I do music. Then the shocker came. Its not just the music that I'm neglecting. It's movies too. And it all has to do with new/fresh content. Songs, movies and TV episodes never change. With podcasts, there is new content with each one. They are cheap to make and cheap to distribute. With movies, I can now stream new content whenever I want with Netflix and Hulu, so what's the point of watching the same movie again and again, when I can steam something new whenever I get the chance. I can't wait for the next 3 years to see what technology I will be using then.

And, just to let you know, I didn't download that song...yet.
