the sound of silence

boingboing points out a really weird fact: at itunes’ music-store (how do you write that frigging thing? i’ll just stick to ITMS!) you can get songs which consist of nothing than silence. how funny is that: buy silence for 99 cents a pop and buy it with some proper DRM -scheme!

so, if you live in the us of a, you can get 6 minutes and 45 seconds (the full playlist at appleturns) of silence for just $8.91. this is really cheap, go and get it, while it’s fresh!

but watch out, some songs are labelled: (which i have to admit, is a bit hard to get..)

oh, and you can even buy 15 minutes of silence ! (but only if you buy the full album) (the link above and most of the links on appleturns will only work if you got itunes on yer box.)
