Enjoy: &#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;- Hi Bob - Way back in 2006-2008, you bought some CDs from my store, CD Baby. (SERENITY OF LIFE: Absolution, E.S.

And the first issue looks good: an interview with the colorful Albert Von Schweickert, a DSP article, DIY stuff, reviews, and more. A pretty impressive debut IMO&#8230;enjoy!]]></description>

Punch line: about 100 hours&#8230;give or take 100 hours! (Check out Audioholics for another viewpoint.)]]></description>

Key stat: The hifi market, now $1B annually, has shrunk to half of where it was 10 years ago. Michael Fremer offers some insights as well.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Beautiful, evocative, and trippy, this vid takes you on an entertaining journey rendered by two German artists. If you can&#8217;t take electronica, try this one instead. Far more sedate. Or this one for something in between. Cool stuff. Downloads available here. (Lehmann&#8217;s other videos are also notable, for reasons other than music.)]]></description>

This Merc article provides a nice preview. Great music, performed well.

The film is still in production, but you can get a taste of it from this &#8220;teaser&#8221; video. Great stuff.

		<description><![CDATA[An engaging Guardian article provides the backstory on the Stones masterpiece &#8211; &#8220;Exile on Main Street.&#8221; The self-imposed exile to France, conducted to evade Britain&#8217;s putative 93% income tax, provided the backdrop for drunken debauchery, in-fighting, and raw rock &#38; roll. The article presages an upcoming re-release of &#8220;Exile.&#8221; {Thanks, Aaron}]]></description>
