An Audio Spectacular

This week's newsletter is all about those sweet, sweet sounds. There's a story about Spotify, starring Neil Young, Joni Mitchell and Joe Rogan. And one about expensive audiophile-level computer hardware. On top of this, some of you might be interested to hear that we're going to try something new with the newsletter soon, something audio related...

Craig and I are hoping to get together online and audio record some of the things we write about in the newsletter as a fortnightly podcast. For those of you who might be interested in listening to this newsletter on the way to work instead of reading it when you get there, we'll let you know what it's called and where to find it once we've sorted everything out. We'll talk about our stories, and probably chat a little about what we think of them. We may also at times be joined by some of our fellow committee members, including Daniel Ryan (who's a keen activist and may want to tell us what he's been up to) and Bronwyn Rideout (who's written a few articles for us already, and we're hoping will write for us more regularly)..

Speaking of Bronwyn, she's written us a piece about why she's a skeptic, so I'll start with that before diving into my audio news.
