DROP.IO DOWNLOADS TO CEASE DEC. 15

Before everyone panics and starts writing to me, I just discovered that Drop.io is allowing no new uploads and all material on their servers will be deleted by December 15. This means that you should go back through and download everything from Drop.io you can from my blog archives to your drive before that date.

I will upload these shows to alternate services as fast as I can. They won't be lost, since they exist on multiple hard drives. I will be using 4Shared for my new shows for the time being, and of course continue to upload 64k versions to A-Infos Radio.
