    192 kbs and 320 kbs, is there really a difference?

    Music Is Dead: iPods and Young People Have Utterly Destroyed Music

    Shure SE530 vs Grado SR225? Yep! You bet.

    How do these compare to the IE8? I'm sure this has been asked a multitude of times, but can anyone put something concise into words?

    Spotify - does anyone use it?

    They've just opened it up. If you hurry, you can get the nice little "early user" message.
