Rolling Stones
The Rolling Stones Magazine features multiple articles, most of which contain content based on music. There are many different advertisements and many eye catching photos. Much of the information included things that all American citizens can relate to, such as President Obama’s inauguration.
I found that the magazine was eye catching, that there was much to read about and to consider within its articles and its own reviews. Its audience seems to be focused more for the older American citizens. Some content also relates to a young adult audience, such as the music and movies involved, for example: The Dark Knight.
This is a quality magazine that should be commended for its content and interesting reviews and articles. This magazine is worth your dollar.
David Li
David Li is a Chinese instrumentalist who plays a two-string and a bow. All of the songs were translated in from Chinese to English for a wider audience to understand. The volume we heard pieces of was Volume 4. The songs had no lyrics, they were instrumental.
The music was well played and had good dynamic contrast. They had interesting harmonies and were very well played. It seemed like the artist cared about what they were playing. The CD cover was well put together and the artist took the time to think about wider audiences and made it easier for American’s to understand by translation as well as explanation of what certain words meant. Such as: Erhu which is a Chinese Fiddle.
This CD was worth listening to. It was interesting as well as calming and it seemed to clear the mind. The CD can be bought online.
I-Dog
The IDog is a cute idea, it dances and the lights on its face flash to the beat of the music, when plugged into an IPod. When researched it was found to be as much as $42.99. The music sounded radio like. When it is turned on it barks and when it turns off it barks. According to a customer when played for a long period of time it barks while the music is playing.

Its performances were disappointing, we played many different genre of music, such as “screamo” and “gospel” and the dog hardly responded to either. Though its lights flashed consistently it did not dance nearly as much as expected. When it did “dance” it moved it tilted its head back and forth. As for it barking while the music is playing, it intervenes with the listeners ability to enjoy the actual music, and is distracting.

Overall the IDog was unsatisfying. It was thought to be much more then it actually was which left the customers feeling the need for more. The IDog is definitely not worth the money, if it actually moved and did what it was advertised to do then it would be a success, but it didn’t.
