I hate to think of poor Frank Zappa rolling over in his grave knowing iTunes is advertising his work as big news and profiting from it too.

@mollydotcom if you lived 70s like zappa did, 80s would be fun-ish, 90s would be unbearable.. 2k+ would be time to quit..

@devrimyasar Aww, no way! Never quit! Brilliance knows no bounds.
@sfegette @mattmay Yet more evidence that Great Minds Think and all that. :D
@japchap The point is Zappa was a point to point person. The profiteers and middlemen are the offensive issue (AKA Apple, RIAA etc.)
@japchap Well, since the man himself is no longer among us to answer for himself, the point's moot. It's an interesting thing to witness.

@mollydotcom the dude put out 60 albums, the fact that they're reissuing them is pretty cool.

@mollydotcom I don't know - this is finally going to expose the digital generation to the man's music. That can't be bad.

@mollydotcom question, though, will more people be exposed to his music now? Might that not be a good thing? Just a thought.
