I’m tired of the music on your blog. What makes you think you can play your music on my computer?
I found a nerdy solution to the problem. Since most of those annoying “playlists” found on blogspot blogs all come from playlist.com, you can eliminate most of the problem with this command (for fellow mac users):
ipfw add deny tcp from any to 66.97.180.235
That’s it. They seemingly have dozens of domains, all pointing to that single IP. Block outbound traffic to the IP, and you’ll be free of that awful music people think you want to hear.
Windows users, try adding these lines to your c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file:
# stop stupid blog music insanity
127.0.0.2 www.greatprofilemusic.com
127.0.0.2 www.myplaylist.org www.profileplaylist.net
127.0.0.2 www.playlistproject.net
127.0.0.2 www.mp3asset.com
There are more domains than that, but I got tired of looking for them. Blocking the IP above is the best way to go.

What did you do delete my comment because it was too obvious and made you feel dumb?

I commented earlier and it didn’t post. I said, “Why don’t you just turn the volume off on your speaker?”
