Check out these 45 iPod Cases made from recycled 45 rpm records. You can choose your favorite piece of vinyl and have the case custom-made. So what'll it cost ya to use old media to protect your new media? $45, of course.
In other music news, green is the new rock. Seriously. When D.C. classic rock radio station WARW 94.7 wasn't doing well in the ratings, the owners decided to green their format. Their new tagline? "Go green with The Globe."
Now the station plans to use renewable energy to power its transmitter and replace company cars with hybrids. In-studio artists will perform in The Globe's Custom Greenhouse, which has been fitted with low-voltage lighting and recycled flooring. They'll also be giving listeners tips on energy conservation and other eco-topics. Tune in to find out more.
