...digital music zoomed to $1.1 billion last year, up from $380 million in 2004. Digital music now provides around 6% of most companies' revenues, up from almost nil two years ago, and that growth shows no signs of peaking. And more than any other major label, EMI's comeback mirrors the changing fortunes of the music world. In its half-year results for the period ending Sept. 30, 2005, EMI's revenues returned to growth for the first time since 2000, rising 5.8% to $1.64 billion. Its global digital sales soared 142% to $79.3 million; that's 5% of total...
...weeks. Any unanswered victory for St. Lawrence will put the squad in strong position to defend an outright fourth seed when it arrives in Cambridge next week. Last time Harvard met Cornell—in Cambridge, on Nov. 11—the Big Red staged a devastating third-period comeback.

...traded points, with neither team establishing a large cushion. With sophomore Brian Rapp setting, the Crimson showed flashes of brilliance but countered with several costly mistakes. With the score tied at 15, Rivier went on a 9-2 run. Facing a significant deficit, Harvard could not make a comeback and succumbed, 30-19. Game two was almost a replica of the first frame, with the score following a similar pattern and the Crimson falling by the same tally. “In both of the first games, [the Raiders] got a few quick points,” Freese said...
...first half, the Harvard women made it to the line frequently in the second frame. The Crimson was similiarly on fire from the charity stripe, as Harvard buried 15 of 21 attempts from the line after the break. Franklin played a huge part in the team’s comeback, scoring 12 of her 16 points in the second half and nailing a clutch three-pointer early in the half to cut Penn’s lead to two. Five consecutive points down the stretch, including another huge three, iced the game for Harvard, However, Franklin shrugs off her scoring...
