Okay, first watch this:

I DESPISE this form of music. It does not rock AT ALL. Why can't anyone rock out without all the spastic Beatlesesque Emo cries of "rebellion" (read: let's party). It's too slick, too sexy. Style over substance. THIS is here to counter all the MTV sludge?
Doesn't anyone care about musicality anymore? Yay, power chords. Yay, 4/4 time. Yes, Asenath, I long for pop music of the bygone era. Actually, Mastodon rocks pretty hard, but no likes ugly dudes who scream. Billy Corgan was the opposite: more whiny than screamy. Anyone left--in the middle? Fuck, I'm old. Guess I'll just put on Coltrane.
The other Apple thingy out is this:

Anyone interested? Or am I the only loser who wants this thing? (The fact that I'm already a loser is besides the point.)

Try the band "Three Inches of Blood." They were on while I was getting tattooed today, and I must say that these fuckers can bring the rock. Think ACDC with Judas Priest, plus Mastodon. Then imagine AMAZING vocals at one octave higher than is humanly possible. Love it.
This cannot possibly be as good as you are describing. But download, I will...
Yeah, you're going to see more and more things like the Apple box in the next few years. The tech we use at work is looking for the same internet-TV market. Expect to see dozens of new set-top boxes in the next few years before a few companies drop out.
You know, without the promise of shiny new Apple technology, we might as well all blow our brains out. Clearly, the future is just a big, sappy, sad sack full of lame, pretentious, derivative music. Oh, for those wonderful days of our youth when music was authentic and people...well...people could rock out for real.
If you need me, I'll be on my escalator going back to when music was good...when music was good...when music was good... (picture the wavy visual and echo to signal a flashback).
I love you guys.
The good old days when there were tape decks!
Or, you could move to Long Island, where popular music officially stopped with Billy Joel's "Storm Front" album.
JFK/Blown away/WHAT ELSE DO I HAVE TO SAAAAAAY?!!
