JohnT gave it away in a post about 2 months ago.

You guys just aren't looking hard enough.

We can't talk about  it until it ships.

And I got it all figured out:

I found that post from JohnT from about 2 months ago:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?board=3;action=display;threadid=10070;start=msg60328#msg60328 (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?board=3;action=display;threadid=10070;start=msg60328#msg60328)

Put it together with what JimH said about shipping (and this is litterally shipping...), and here it is: MC will be the first media player sent to the martians, copies of the program are on board of Rover Spirit Mission and are scheduled to land on Mars at 04:35 Jan. 4, 2004, Universal Time:

Ha ha JRiver, you really thought no one would figure it out, didn't you?

So, will it be a subscription, or pay-as-you-go model?

Mars' year is 687 Earth days, so I would not be suprised to see an annual subscription rate of $18.73.

It must be working .... something I was trying to remember ... or find out ... or something ....... fading quickly.

Ha!! That's nothing new. I'm 52 years old. Sometimes I can't even remember my kids' names. I ROUTINELY forget what I'm saying in the middle of a sentence.

Nice Playing Now Stamp

Nice indeed. Credit goes to Drowbe for his great work on the [banned] Playing Now skin set.

Anyone interested can get this slim one here:

For the entire set, see this thread:

can it automatically put the stamp in?  do you copy & paste?  Do you have to take screen shots?

kiwi:

go to that thread:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?board=5;action=display;threadid=16598 (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?board=5;action=display;threadid=16598)

download the last version of the plug-in, install it, read the help and you'll be quickly able to configure so that it automatically upload a screenshot (you don't have to take it yourself) on to a website via ftp (other options are available). Check it out, this plug-in is amazing.

IO...

Have you been listening to that same Morcheeba track all day? You should try a little variety ("The Sea" is excellent off that same CD). Either FireBird or my ISP servers are doing some serious caching because your PN hasn't changed since I first saw it (this morning). It is neat, though. Would look even better if the area outside the "hourglass" outline were transparent.

xen:

I don't have the auto-ftp on that's why it didn't change.
I agree about that a little more transparency around the stamp would be great and I'm sure Drowbe must be working on that.

Let's prove that I listen other tracks. What about this one:
