    News In Print, Volume 2

    Nytlogo379x64 Today was one of the rare days the New York Times Business section had more than one interesting thing to read.  I didn't even get to the FT on the subway ride to the office.  The coverage of the abandoned Yahoo deal (NASD:YHOO) was fine, although I'm sure the coverage will be just as good elsewhere. 
    Media columnist David Carr covers Apple's renewed efforts to dominate the movie download business in Steve Jobs Stakes Out the TV Den.  Carr writes, "I love my iPod and all 3,000 songs I have on it, but if I had it to do over again, and now I do, I wouldn’t have entered a lifetime partnership with Apple (NASD:AAPL). The studios may end up with a similar feeling, having helped Apple build another hardware franchise on the backs of their content."  (I remember several years ago hearing executives at Thomson say the same thing about FactSet - building a business on the backs of their content.)
    Then there's an advertising article about technology publisher IDG: Publisher Tested the Waters Online, The Dove In, which covers their gradual move from print to online. 
    If You Use Outlook E-Mail, Meet Xobni covers a free service that enhances your Outlook email experience.  (Xobni, which is "inbox" backwards is excellent - I've had it installed for 3 or 4 months now and use it everyday.Xobni_logo
    Finally, for music fans, there's a profile of indie record label Fueled by Ramen which brings us Panic at the Disco and Gym Class Heroes. 
    It's hard to imagine the Times being able to deliver this level of quantity and quality everyday, (the quality is usually there but not the quantity) but they had me engaged this morning.  And then there was even a piece article on Elvis Costello's new CD.
