You should really talk to Microsoft about this "awful practice" of releasing unfinished versions of software. They've been doing this with Windows for decades! And can you believe they have the nerve to actually CHARGE for some of their software updates? I bet Microsoft would reward you handsomely if you could fixed their obviously flawed business model. Call 'em up, man.

For the record, I asked my Magic 8-Ball if we were going to see an update this week.
I got this: Ask again later.
So, yeah...that's about right.

Could be good news for Metallica fans. Lars is doing an AMA on reddit right now (and no, I didn't ask him when the code is going to drop), and he said:

The first four albums could really benefit from this!

Couldn't agree more. Hope we get hi-res surround versions, like they did with The Black Album, too!

Live voting results are available here: http://pinballvote.metallica.com/results (you'll need to copy and paste that--I can't get link to work here)

As of right now, Blackened is in first place. Ride the Lightning and Orion are tied for second.

So my votes for Dyers Eve and Damage Inc. didn't mean too much!

I wonder if this SUPPLEMENTS or REPLACES Borg's Spooky Pinball podcast mention of adding something from Death Magnetic during Coffin MB.

Ta daaaaaa!

So...how is it?
