Excellent documentary regarding the impact of the LP on musicians and the industry. I intended to watch just the beginning of it last night, and ended up sitting through the whole thing. Searched the forum, and couldn't find any mention of it, so thought I'd post a link. Really worth a watch.

    Quality isn't as good, but here's another copy of it.

    I don't get it. I tried showing a portion of this (original link) to someone today on my iPad, and sure enough was told it couldn't be played. Then tried my Android phone, and same story. Seemed to get a couple different messages. Sometimes it would say it was blocked by the networks from playing in the US. Other times it would say it was blocked from mobile devices. Either way it would appear that it will play just fine from my home PCs and Macs. So if you want to see the original, be sure to give it a shot on your home computer. BTW I was able to stream it through my Google Chromecast too. That's a device that is proving more useful than I expected.

    You might be on to something. Perhaps it's available in America, but not in 'MERICA. ;-)
