...musicmatch.com plus $30 to upgrade to the fast-burning version). Success at last! But there were still problems. The program doesn't tell you if playlists are too long for the CD until you hit RECORD, and some of my MusicMatch-made CDs skipped like a heavyweight boxer. Real Jukebox (at Real.com also free for basic and $30 for fast-burning) had a better track record, but only because the Real people sent me a software patch that isn't publicly available yet.

Top Broadway composers went West and wrote tunes that were the most popular of their day and still play in the nation's memory-jukebox; Harold Arlen's score for The Wizard of Oz is entrancing TV audiences 60 years after it was written. Pop music shared center stage with operetta (in Jeanette MacDonald's films) and boogie-woogie (in shorts showcasing such jazz greats as Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington...
...health than anything else. I figured the cure for my fiendish malaise would be easy to find at a company still worth billions in the wake of the tech crash, a company that recently spawned its own U.S. Senator (Maria Cantwell, the famous 50th Democrat and a former Real Jukebox product manager).
