shutdown

I previously wrote about Spiralfrog.com, an ad-supported website with free and legal song downloads.  Unfortunately, they have since closed their doors.  I tried to visit a couple of days ago, and found only a blank page.  A Google search yielded an article on CNET.com, “Requiem For A Frog,” confirming that the site is out of business, and speculating about the reasons for the shutdown, which included the current bad economy, and the fact that Spiralfrog’s restrictive DRM was a severe handicap in catching on with listeners.
