You spend eight hours in a coffee shop, use their free internet, buy one measly coffee and the whole time you are earning money by blogging? That means you're a douche. You should be kicked out of the coffee shop. Better yet, figure out how much it costs them to provide you with free internet, table space and power for your laptop, then you'll know what you should be spending.
@SubarnaCrisus: hey princess. calm down. one cup of coffee is enough to cover the cost of his internet/power/and chair time. plus, dan works saturdays and without him i wouldn't have crap to do. lay off. besides, coffee shops love the image that folks like Dan bring when they chill with their lappie and look cool. he is doing them a favor.
dude, you can't play past medium??? i played that game maybe a total of 2 hours and was playing it on hard with some songs on expert. and then it was way too boring, so i went back to playing freecell.
What's the point? As soon as I read the blurb on this article, I realized that all you really need is an iPod and a killer sound system. As long as you have everything ripped to the iPod, just keep a buffer of 2-3 songs queued up in the On-The-Go playlist, and it'll never stop playing. When someone comes up and makes a request, just add it to the end of the list, and it'll get played when the list advances to that point. Tada, no more need for crossfading, no more need for two devices, and certainly no more need to prep each track for playback.
@Purple Dave: 'Cuz that sounds like a really fun night of DJing. Just standing there behind a table adding songs to a playlist that only fade like what, 3-5 seconds at the end (only at the end) of a song.
@Tony Harrison: If you've got a huge gap between songs, then you obviously haven't explored all the settings that have been offered since iTunes 7 or 8. There's a setting that you can apply to individual tracks so they stream directly into each other. The upside is that when listening to albums where tracks actually do blend (The Beatles have several medleys where they actually recorded multiple songs as a single track, which were then broken up for CD releases). The downside is that if you pause a track within the last few seconds of playback, and then unpause it to play out, you'll register two plays instead of one.
I hate to say it, but my daughter (7 years old) just got a pink iPod for Christmas, and these headphones would be exactly what she wants. If I loved her, I would buy them for her. Bwah-ha-ha-ha! Stupid kid.

that said, I think all these music games are great. It's usually non-musicians or quasi-musicians who hate on them.
