...irony is that most of Mays' wounds have been self-inflicted during a very public confrontation with Eminem. On Jan. 12, The Source plans to ship out 800,000 copies of a CD on which a young Eminem clumsily raps, "Black girls are dumb, and white girls are good chicks." This should be a major coup for the magazine--a world-famous white rapper uttering a racist phrase--yet somehow it isn't.

Kudos to Steve Jobs and Apple for rewriting the rules and bridging the gap between piracy and the legitimate downloading of music. If that bridge happens...
