Of course, when I bring in a DVD of classical music to bolster my stash I play at work, out of literally three days of music to choose from, why does iTunes immediately fixate on Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor? Does it have an empathic interface I'm not aware of? (And if so, should I be surprised that it's in an Apple product first?)
In a slightly more upbeat note, glad to see the short-form Hugo noms -- of the three episodes I'm trying (with some success) to get my cow-orker hooked on Doctor Who with, all three got nominations. Then again, so did Star Trek New Voyages (...buh?) and the broadcast version of Razor, which, I gotta admit, misses some elements of the DVD version. Of the five, though, I'd choose "Blink," if only because it had a resonance that none of the others did ("Family of Blood" approached it at times, but it felt too diluted, by show's end)....
(Edit: Heh, and then it plays the scherzo from Beethoven's Ninth. That's more like it.)
