oh sh*t....no please....I try to get out but they keep pulling me back in!
All I have to say is this (directly quoted from page 109 of the Oct 2nd Time magazine):

A SOUL TO KEEP by Julie Rawe
"What's an eternal soul fetching these days? The one belonging to electronica artist MOBY went for a paltry $41 when it was auctioned last week on eBay by a former longtime friend. Indie-film director Paul Yates claims Moby has been selling out: all 18 songs on his platinum album, PLAY, have been licensed for use in commercials and TV shows ranging from Nissan ads to Dawson's Creek. Yates also alleges that Moby is trying to doctor his image: the musician is now distancing himself from Yates' upcoming comedy, PORNO, which includes a scene of Moby playing guitar with two sex toys strapped to his head. As executive producer, Moby no longer agrees with the film creatively, his manager says. And if the film never makes it to theaters, perhaps copies will pop up on eBay."

Just thought this was an interesting piece of news I received about
everyone's favorite artist.

Moby meets the king of orchestral pop music.  Should be wonderful, really.
