Doomed musical next-
big-
thing:
mash-
up re-
mixes. I seem to recall a lot of coverage from the Napster heyday that emphasized this same thing, mixes of Eminem and Britney or Christina and AC/DC or so forth. There was an absolutely absurd amount of this stuff on Napster, the most popular by far seemingly 'My Name is.' Oh, and here are things about
sampling-related laws,
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductees (the Righteous Brothers? AC/DC?) and (misleading title)
TiVo versus outhouses.
