Analog Revival Means Vinyl Will Outlive CD

SLASHDOT.ORG: An anonymous reader writes "In the age of the iPod, an unlikely revival is taking place — kids are turning to 7" vinyl to get their kicks. Sales of 7" singles are apparently through the roof. Bands like the White Stripes are releasing thousands of new singles on the format, and record purchases have risen by over a million units in the last year — back to 1998 levels. NME told CNET: "it's very possible that the CD might become obsolete in an age of download music but the vinyl record will survive,". The article explains how indie kids are drawn to vinyl because "the tactile joy of owning a physical object that represents your attachment to a band is infinitely more enjoyable than entering a credit card number into iTunes.""

ONLINE AUCTION: Helmut Newton signed photographed

I am currently expanding my art collection of modern - primarily danish - paintings and photographic art. Via several online auction houses I buy specific, favourite artists and works. As of writing, I am engaged in auction bids for some prints and a very special painting. Earlier today I was in a bidding war for three signed Helmut Newton photographs. I have always loved the work of Helmut Newton and I believed they would be an excellent investment as well. Also, I would love to have some of his sexy portraits on the walls of my bedroom. I went beyond my limit and was ready to exceed beyond sense, but was called in a meeting and missed the deal. Congratulations to you out there, who won auction. I hope I will get you next time!
