Excellent show and some very interesting topics. I enjoyed it very much and look forward to listening to future episodes. Great job Mark and everyone else involved at AA.
I greatly enjoyed the show, and I highly recommend it to retro enthusiasts. Your segment on the show opens up a whole can of worms on world distribution of games. Do you think that the tax situation in Europe might also have anything to do with game distribution? It seems the European tax codes, with all the VAT's and such, is even more complicated than the American system, and probably varies between individual countries in the EU, further complicating the legal mess.
@rowdyrob3d The European situation is a mess, the taxes do play a role but it is the licensing and DRM crazyness that really screw up here.
But taxes do vary between US States as well and laws do vary too, yet the companies put money and effort into making those services available US-wide.
Hi Mark, neat new intro how did you make it? I hope AA doesn't stand for Alcoholics Anonymous lol. I like Matt Barton's channel very good. I downloaded the 128k quality version will give it a listen. Thanks for the heads up. Glad to see that Giraffe Clock is getting some mileage lol.
@DLiberator78 Thanks. I was fooling around a little with Garageband - an application where you basically turn a mac into a multitrack studio. I hacked this together in just minutes.
Just listened to the podcast and thought it was great. Was a bit worried about your lengthy discussion on biting sausage ;)

@Lorfarius Indeed I was a bit all over the place - I guess I was watching too many Yethboth eating videos!

That's cool man. You have a nice soothing voice that probably lends itself to this type of thing.

@atarileaf Christina's segment will be interesting to listen to - especially if your little one has been under the influence of the Webkins! :P
