My displeasure with Sony (and other record companies hiding stuff on computers) reaches new levels. And I'm not alone:
The web has been outraged by the pure evil that is the Sony Music rootkit. Why bring this up here? Well, My Morning Jacket's latest offering "Z" on Sony/Columbia, is one of the releases so infected by Sony's malicious, computer burrowing rootkit. And while many year-end Best of 2005 lists have been compiled with My Morning Jacket's album as a fine example of exemplary work, you will find their work tainted like an underage Thai prostitute with a .us web domain operating at a time of international shortage on condoms, ziplock bags or saran wrap.
I'd buy this (Quicktime) if the CD didn't contain rootkit mal-ware. Maybe I should write another love letter?
