We have tons of news, plus our new "Show Us and Tell" contest, letters in the mailbag, an audio comment, MIDI 101, Audioengine 5 speakers, and feedback on our video podcast in IHR #40.

(Note that cover tunes of non-public-domain music won't work, because we can't play them on the show.) We'll randomly draw from all submissions (one per person) for some great prizes in July.
