For 53 years, The Grammy Awards have shown the appreciation of everything in the music industry. They give awards to all different kinds of music, ranging from Rock and Pop, to Gospel and Polka. However, one category that has not been recognized is the music in video games.
With the Grammy’s reevaluating their award categories for 2012, they have finally decided to bring some appreciation to the video game music world. They decided to add the oppurtuity in 4 different categories: Best Song Written for Visual Media, Best Score Soundtrack for Visual Media, Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media, and The Music for Visual Media.
This sounds like a publicity stunt to try and get the younger generations interested in the Grammy’s. While it does seem like a cheap trick, I believe it would actually work. I just think it is about time to see the works of Koji Kondo and Martin O’Donnel get some appreciation.

Today’s Show: Server Migration, Apple, Health, Windows 7, Media, Google, Transformers, The Military, Coffee, Noodles
Consider this a bit of a State of the Podcast episode, we brush over how things are going on the back end very quickly and remind everyone to enter into the 3 in 3 contest, deadline is this Wednesday the 21st! Its a bit of a morose weekend here in Philadelphia, football team under preforming coldest air in quite some time and a massive project all put the damper on a nice weekend.
However today’s show is a testament to the pervasiveness of the content i cover, its not just that I have to do a show twice a week but i was to spread it out any farther The sheer volume of content would swamp me! We have a bit on the inauguration and how it relates to coffee of all things. We cover some of the silly kitchen products that are leaking their way to market and we hit, briefly on the top 3 stories of the last week.
