Discovered Blip.fm today. Here you can tweet music you like and add comments. Yes, tweet, because it's basicly a copy of Twitter, but centered on music. It's pretty good, as all tracks can actually be played and you can create complete playlists.
I do have my questions about the legality of it all, because most of these songs are not hosted by Blip.fm themselves. Users can add songs by pointing to a URL, where the MP3 file resides. Naturally you should only do that to songs that are hosted with permission of the original copyright holders. Well, I think you know what's the score on that one. Anyway, try it out and enjoy it while it lasts. It really has potential. Here's my personal profile on Blip.fm

As of this friday, the antennasia remix album Velo-City: Remixed (as reviewed here), will be available in Europe through Lemongrassmusic. The track order differs from the original Japanese release, but all the same tracks are there. And if you decide to go for the digital release on iTunes (available from March 10), then you get two additional bonustracks. These are remixes of Blue Dress and Paradise Parlor, which are remixed by D-Fried and Dwight Fried respectively. Yes, that's actually the same person, but the difference in name means a difference in style.
