Aw, *blush*, don't make me go Halle Berry on y'all...

I think POW came out quite well - it has it's flaws but it was ambitious and
we mostly pulled it off I think. Much credit must go to the composer I was
working with, Christopher Slaski, whose input was excellent and gave me
great source material to work with.

I'm just mostly excited about the next one now, because it's an opportunity
to put right all those flaws!

As for our plug-in, that's something we've thought about a lot. We're keen
to encourage people to use it for two reasons. First, I'm personally a big
believer in what DM can do for websites and want other people to see it the
way I see it! Second, we would obviously like to develop business in that
area if possible.

For the time being our approach is basically that if people want to use the
plug-in for their sites they can, and we will supply the necessary bits of
HTML, Javascript etc to help them do so free of charge, on condition that
the control is visible with our logo and link to our site. A couple of
people are in the process of developing content on this basis at the moment.

Our aim is to help people to create a range of sites which will help us to
show better what the technology can do and take it from there. It should
also help us accumulate more information about any remaining bugs so we can
get them fixed asap.

Congrats, Ciaran!  I heard an early version of the music last year which
was very cool so I'm looking forward to the full-meal deal. =20

I'd like to commend you too on what a great demo you have at
widesounds.com.  If some independent web producer wanted to take
advantage of your interactive music plug-in, what would they do? =20

I'm back finally after being blocked for spamming that I didn't do!
Thanks to Bjorn's tireless "Free The Brighton One" campaign it all got
sorted out so I'm looking forward to getting involved again...

A quick and shameless plug if I may - "Prisoner of War" came out the
week
before last in Europe and the Xbox version is worth checking out for
it's
DirectMusic. The PC version will also be out soon and the music works
the
same way. Only the damn PS2 spoiling my fun... ;)

Cheers,
Ciaran
