...disc a month. Blank CD-Rs (discs on which you can record only once) bought in bulk cost as little as 25[cents] each. Making your own CDs--from your collection, from friends' discs or from downloaded tunes--is easier, cheaper, faster and more satisfying than any '80s mix tape ever was. Millions of music lovers who don't (yet) own a CD burner are enjoying often eccentric collections of tunes created by friends and colleagues...
...manufacturers of blank CDs, the rip-and-burn trend has proved a windfall. Americans stocked up on 1.4 billion blank CDs last year. Memorex, stuck with decaying sales of cassettes and VHS tapes, deftly moved into the market for CD-Rs and now owns the top share, with 30%.

He had been granted immunity in exchange for giving evidence against Ethel Kennedy's nephew Michael Skakel at a 1998 grand jury inquiry. Skakel's defense attorney Michael Sherman hopes that by presenting evidence that Littleton may have had a hand in the murder, there will be doubt cast among the jury regarding the alleged guilt of his client. The prosecution is opposed to any trial testimony about Littleton being...
