If the wearying writer's strike is finally to be resolved, this is how it will probably happen.
The Directors Guild of America has begun negotiating on the movie makers' cut of online revenues; any deal would be a model for other groups such as the writers in their dispute with the Hollywood studios. Why are the directors any more likely to come to terms? Much of the membership of the Writers Guild of America was unemployed before the entertainment industry shutdown began. The directors' union is a more elite club; the movie makers want to get back to work, because they actually have projects.

The bassist talks about the bandís monster reunion —

Led Zeppelin bassist John Paul Jones' small bombshell in the

tremors of hope among fans for a full-fledged tour following the
group's December 10th reunion performance at the O2 arena in
London. But in these additional excerpts from an exclusive

After belting for the first time in "Sweeney Todd," Depp rocks out
on his life in music
Attend the tale of Johnny Depp: still Hollywood's most perverse
superstar, he has followed up the family-friendly Pirates of
the Caribbean trilogy with Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber
of Fleet Street, a buckets-of-blood saga of cannibalism that
is also — gulp! — a musical. That's right,
Depp sings for the first time ever onscreen, and critics are
warbling his praises for tackling the notoriously difficult score
from theater legend Stephen Sondheim. This gripping adaptation of
the 1979...

In the age of MP3s, sound quality is worse than ever
David Bendeth, a producer who works with
rock bands like Hawthorne Heights and Paramore, knows that the
albums he makes are often played through tiny computer speakers by
fans who are busy surfing the Internet. So he's not surprised when
record labels ask the mastering engineers who work on his CDs to
crank up the sound levels so high that even the soft parts sound
loud.
Over the past decade and a half, a revolution in recording
technology has changed the way albums are produced, mixed
