| Simon
Defends Paula |
Ananova reports: Simon Cowell has defended
his co-judge on American Idol Paula Abdul who is alleged to have had an
affair with one of the show's contestants.
Cowell, who is often seen arguing with
the 80s popstar on the US show, said: "I've worked with Paula now for four
years, and we've had our moments, but she's there to offer support to the
contestants, and I've never seen anything untoward in all of the years
I've worked with her."
But, Cowell, dubbed Mr Nasty for his biting
comments on the show, is scathing about Corey Clark, the contestant who
is making the allegations he slept with Abdul.
He told the Regis & Kelly Show that
Clark "managed to sing the worst song I've ever heard" on the show [see

| Rosen
Vs Jobs |
FMQB reports: In an online editorial for The
HuffingtonPost.com, former RIAA Chairman/CEO Hilary Rosen questions the
business tactics of Apple and asks why the iPod is only compatible with
songs purchased from iTunes. Rosen writes, "I spent 17 years in the music
business the last several of which were all about pushing and prodding
the painful development of legitimate on-line music. Now, the music fan
is on the cusp of riches in their options." She lists the number of online
digital music stores and points out that most other portable devices are
compatible with all online stores.
However, while iTunes purchases only work
on an iPod, "those other music sites have lots of music that you can't
get at the iTunes store. So, if you have an iPod, you are out of luck."
