Dylan iTunes

Anyone else see it already? I'm somewhat surprised to see Dylan doing it, but thought it was pretty cool. I also ran across a story where Steve Jobs calls Dylan a "person hero" of his.

Very nice! Bob Dylan is one of my absolute favorite artists of all time. -- ironically, this week in 1994:

Folk singer Bob Dylan sues Apple for trademark infringement, seeking to bar the company from using Bob Dylan's name in conjunction with any new software product. Apple had been developing a programming language originally intended for the Newton that it was calling Dylan, which stood for "dynamic language." Shortly after the suit was filed, Apple reached a confidential out-of-court settlement and obtained the rights to trademark Dylan.

Apple briefly released Dylan for 68000-based Macs in the fall of 1995, then soon abandoned the effort.

I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

I had never heard about this! Thanks for sharing that in the thread. Is kind of ironic...

I like the white background with the almost silhouette look.

It's pretty good. Some of the songs are a bit long-in-tooth, but it's worth $10.
