...Even in 1956, it was still a swell party for Bing: "True Love," another song from "High Society," gave him a No. 3 hit and a gold record (his 21st). And in his duet with Sinatra, he teaches Young Blue Eyes a thing or two about the ease of musical and movie-star mastery. "Well, Did You Evah," an old Cole Porter tune dusted off for the occasion, is a clever thrust-and-parry duet, and Crosby effortlessly gets in the best jabs.

...process so seamless that you won't mind paying for it monthly. The nightmare scenario: a poor selection of music in confusing and conflicting file formats that will drive you underground to a Napster clone like Aimster. So every portal needs to do a deal with MusicNet and Duet--at the very least. "None of these services can survive without content from all five major labels," says Dannielle Romano, music analyst at Jupiter Media Metrix.

...same status as radio stations, which pay royalty fees for playing music. Says Barry: "It's government intervention. It's not my first choice. But collecting licenses [in the open market] is not just painful, it's impossible." If AOL and Yahoo start feeling his pain once MusicNet and Duet kick in this summer, you may see a lot more rockers singing the Senate blues...
