In its latest bid to show its progressive side, popular band Pearl Jam has just released its latest music video, “Life Wasted,” under a Creative Commons license. That means, according to Creative Commons creative director Eric Steuer, that anyone will be able to “legally copy, distribute and share the clip” for noncommercial purposes.
An awesome step in the right direction, if you ask me!
Over at the Red Sweater Blog Daniel Jalkut had a quite clever idea of how it might be possible to give some sort of video playing capability to the iPod Nano. He tried using iTune’s chapter marks to assign picture frames to a track. The outcome is quite interessting although playback is a little choppy in iTunes.

Sadly copying the song over to his Nano provided even worse results. The iPod simply refused to play back the title, most probably because of the over 800 chaptermarks.
