Habemus plus vis computatoris quam Deus

Long ago, I was introduced (by jilara) to a stunningly good technically-filk album by Julia Ecklar, titled Divine Intervention.  The writing was first-rate, the music rich and orchestral, and 22-year-old Julia's voice was astounding.  It was only available on tape at the time, but, hey, that was better than nothing.

Well, at the time it was out of production and complete unobtainium, so I made a copy of the tape.  Rather later, I piped it into babylon5 and ripped it to mp3.  Not the best quality mp3, because there's all the tape noise and so on, but I could drop it into my music library and listen any time.

Well, I've just learned that it has become available again, from Prometheus Music, either on CD or as MP3 downloads.  So I ordered a copy of the CD (it's sold through CDBaby).

This morning, I found mail waiting for me from Prometheus Music.  "Hi, thanks for your order.  Your CD is on the way, and in the meantime, you can go here and download it for free in MP3 format.  Oh, and we've tossed in a few Internet-only extras too."

Prometheus Music gets it.

(By the way, existing Julia Ecklar fans who don't already know will be pleased to hear that Julia is currently recording a new album, scheduled to be released next year, with the working title "Indistinguishable From Magic".)
