I just want to take time and reflect on the three years I’ve been running this blog. I am actually pretty surprised that I have been able to post a different song for the past 1,097 days (plus a few bonus songs) without having any duplicate entries.

And while I don’t have a new contest to commemorate my third anniversary, I do want to point out that the original contest that I posted two years ago is in fact still open for someone to win.

I would like to take a moment to thank all my readers for getting me to over 50,000 page views last night. I could not have done this without you. Thank you!

I’m sure some of you have noticed changes with the links I provide. Bing has incorporated the music search into it’s regular search page. If you want to download the song, the links now appears in the upper right-hand side of the page. I’m sure most who have clicked through to Bing have figured this out, but I wanted to point this out to everyone. I’m not going to change the links in the post I’ve already set up to be published or that have already been published seems how the links still work, and the wording will remain “Bing Music” until the end of July. I’m not sure when or if Microsoft will every break the links I provide, but I’m not paid to maintain my blog, so I won’t be going back to fix anything that becomes broken. I’m sorry in advance if any link breaks, but you should be able to search yourself for any song posted with a quick copy and paste.

I know the year isn’t quite over yet, but so far my blog has had over 24,000 page views!

I just created a Google+ Community page where you can talk about your favorite songs or rag on bad one. Google+ Community

Today, the U.S. House of Representatives is trying to pass the Stop Online Piracy Act. If you want to contact your congressmen about your feelings of this or any bills or laws, you may go to the House of Representatives’ or Senate’s site to find the contact information for your congressmen.

I’ve changed the source where you can download the song of the days. I will now be using Bing Music. Technically, you don’t download directly from there, but it will allow you to chose who you buy the music from, either Amazon, iTunes, or Zune. This decision does have a little to do with Amazon terminating my Associate Program membership just because I live in Illinois. But it is also because Bing Music does have more features. Along with allowing you to chose the music store you can buy from, Bing Music also allows you to listen to many of the songs in full before you buy it. While you can only play each song once, it’s better than me posting videos from YouTube seems how many of them stop working. I hope you like the change.

Due to copyright holders, there won’t be any more videos. There could be some, but because most become broken, don’t expect them. Again, I’m sorry for the horrible way copyright holders treat us.
