    Really enjoyed this one, especially the bit about re-introducing scarcity by rationing access to music - only listen to artists beginning with ‘b’ this year etc. I was talking with a music biz luminary the other day about the ennui that hits you when you realise that your record collection is now effectively infinite. Maybe you could implement something like this in an iTunes plugin that arbitrarily hides half your music or restricts access according to rules you can’t vary or something…
