compression format. Today, it's a Net phenomenon
that's at the center of an enormous controversy.
That's because MP 3 makes it possible for people
with an Internet connection to bypass record
stores (and cashiers) and download CD-quality
music by their favorite artists -- for free. MP 3

for musicians and rec...

Fingers To The Buttons Test The Player Distraction
875 words
Thus the situation of characters within videogames
shows an example of distraction, the test-space
and its tactile appropriation through habituation.

players received more freedom when it was
abolished. Actually, it was the antithesis of free
agency, a paragraph in each player's contract that
allowed a baseball team to keep him indefinitely
