Local DJ sells iPods with custom playlists
A local Philidelphia DJ is selling iPods with custom playlists to various clubs, restaurants, and other businesses, according to the Philadelphia City Paper: "Armed with a small fleet of iPods, Porter's embarking on a one-of-a-kind business venture: filling the little mp3 players with a specially created musical catalog and renting them out to area businesses. 'Instead of going in with my vinyl and DJing for four hours, I can DJ for them for the whole month.' As far as he knows, he's the first to come up with this particular business model....For a couple hundred dollars a month, he comes in to switch up the playlists, and he provides the iPods."
