While I read that Wired interview, with Michael Nesmith, (the Monkee 
WASN'T in the American Idol audience the other night)
I was just thinking that old wool hat is exactly the kind of 
visionary and digital entrepeneur that Todd, sadly, never quite 
materialized into.  Then I noticed that Jaimie Vernon had posted that 
exact same thought.  So here's a ditto.  I will say, however that I 
remain a true fan of Mr Rundgren's music and that he was also very 
generous and sweet to me on the few occasions I've spoken with him. 
You can't say he didn't try, and let's face it who else, besides 
Nesmith or maybe Prince, was speaking up about digital delivery 
before 1998?
