52media produced the world’s first streaming media webcast which introduced My Morning Jacket, Paul K and the Prayers and over 300 other Independent artists to tens of thousands of early broadband adopters. This incredible online event which was sponsored by Microsoft, Diamond Multimedia and MP3.com helped to pave the way for companies such as YouTube and Hulu while raising over two tons of canned goods for charity.

My favorite "Driving" song
My all time favorite driving song is by a NC band from the late 80s called the Connells.
I couldn't find it on youtube but Rhapsody has is streamed off their site at the link below. 12th song from the top.
While not that heavy, the music just goes great with driving extremely fast, it just continues to build and build, and is perfect especially while driving in a Porsche 928 which I recommend highly.
I had the pleasure of picking one up back in 1997 for my girl's uncle in Dayton Ohio. The ride back to Louisville and the music I had planned/brought with me was just perfect. I ended the trip with Buddy Holly's "True Love Ways" as I pulled into his driveway and the sun was setting. I stuck my head out of the sunroof and yelled "She's home boss" to him.
I will never forget that day for as long as I live.

That is awesome. I've loved the 928 since I first saw "Risky Business" around '85 or so.
And I was just rocking out to this the other day:
