Odd, here in The Netherlands we had a KitKat commercial with The Telephone Call (I think, last year). "Have a break, have a KitKat". The biscuit, not the cat food.

I tried some title-keywords in combination with artist "kraftwerk". That's what I found: autobahn - nothing model - nothing computerlove - nothing computerliebe - nothing radioactivity - nothing radioaktivit�t - nothing heimcomputer - nothing homecomputer - nothing stop - no "Music Non Stop", only "Stop Sellafield" europe - only variations trans europa - only variations calculator - only variations robots - variations like "die robots" (very crude) machine - variations like "mensch machine" modell - normal maschine - normal france - normal expo - normal taschenrechner - normal roboter - normal Some German versions are left, so hurry. Soon there will be only remixes.

Essentially Napster is dead. It's all because of the RIAA strong-arming the U.S. legal system.

I am attempting to get it on my system now but apparently they have a problem on their end of the link. So for those of you who are using Bear Share, I should be there before too long, if it will work with my system. In the mean time, my server at ftp://24.7.251.51 is up and running - I have Kraftwerk and other music available, and am trying to improve my selection. Anonymous downloads will work just fine. If you have something that I don't and would like to upload it, the username kraftwerk and the password kraftwerk will give you upload access (there is no upload access permitted for anonymous FTP). This has not been tested to this point, however, so if someone would please attempt an upload and let me know, I would appreciate it.

After d'loading a few tunes from this band, I must say that their song "He Took Her To A Movie" has some undeniable similarities to "The Model" and "Neon Lights", and you don't have to listen too close either. In fact, is a mix of those two songs only with different lyrics sung by a chic. If you don't hear Kraftwerk there, take your speakers to the cleaners.
