found out why its down...stupid RIAA has sued LAUNCH due to stupid copyright issues:
I HATE THE RIAA
first they take away Napster from me, now LAUNCH??? whats so wrong with LAUNCH to begin with, its like listening to a radio station that only plays certain music...what are they going to do now, sue a classic rock radio station for not playing Britney Spears?
i guess i understand Napster...but LAUNCH?...gimme a break  |

...and another thing...at LAUNCH they are still allowing LAUCH's on demand music videos...how is that better than a radio station in which you cant even specify when to hear certain music? i would think that the music videos would be the problem, not the radio stations... 
...this upsets me |

RIAA LOVES their money...
BTW, I'm a big Van Halen fan. Have all their albums (excluding their live album).
Now if only they'd reunite with Roth.

i got an email sayin that LAUNCHcast was back but theyll only have 25k of their 150k+ library available...hopefully this is a step in the right direction  ...when i went on though it was down due to "technical difficulties"
i miss LAUNCHcast and Napster...im tryin to find a good Napster replacement but cant find a good one yet, ive tried BearShare (OK but too slow), LimeWire (i think thats what its called...WAY to slow), and AudioGalaxy Satelite (pretty good except there are limited users and everytime i download a song it only downloads half of it, but theyve gotta lot of rare songs!)..anyone gotta good replacement?
