] that some stripe have multiple tracks.

At least he mentioned stripesnoop, even though he gave NO CREDIT whatsoever to Acidus for all of his work. Kevin Rose consistantly does this and it is just rude. I am glad to see more publicity for this great project, but was it really so hard to mention a name to give a little credit?

As a bonus to look forward too, Kevin Rose gets a lot of his material from Binary Revolution Radio (total coincidence, I am sure), so maybe we will be seeing memestreams on an upcoming show?
