The announcement for the 2006 AI was made just before bedtime yesterday. The availability of the Best Of album and the winner’s solo album took somewhat less than twenty-four hours. Obviously, the “leakage” of new media, either audio or video, is not dependent on some teenager with a local HMV… The whole manner in which new content becomes available intrigues me. The fictional series “The Scene” and its other dimension parody “Teh Scene” gave one possibility on how the leaky media faucet runs. The war on such leaks by the **AA supports another. I just don’t know… from my chair, it looks too easy and timely to be accidental.
