Brian Eno and others not eligible for Oscar
A number of critically acclaimed composers will not be a part of the Oscar race this year, The Wrap reports. Brian Eno, who recently scored Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones, is not eligible simply due to the reason that the composer never was submitted to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for consideration. According to the Warp article by Steve Pond, Eno “simply felt that he didn’t have time to submit the required paperwork and submit to the type of publicity campaign necessary” to run for an Oscar nomination.
Other scores that have been judged ineligible by the academy’s music branch are Carter Burwell’s and Karen O.’s Where the Wild Things Are and T. Bone Burnett’s and Stephen Bruton’s Crazy Heart, both of them early critics favourites. They most likely became “victims” of the rule stipulating that “scores diluted by the use of tracked themes or other preexisting music, diminished in impact by the predominant use of songs, or assembled from the music of more than one composer shall not be eligible”.
More of a mystery is the disqualification of Nicholas Hooper’s score for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Carter Burwell’s The Blind Side. None of those are on the surprisingly short list of eligible scores for the 2010 Oscars. Other major scores excluded are Hans Zimmer’s Angels and Demons, Marco Beltrami’s Knowing and Law Abiding Citizen by Brian Tyler.

Huh? 2012 is on that list.. Is it excluded or is it a typ-o?
And yeah, surprisingly short list it is..
It is included on the list – got it wrong in the article.
Just for clarification, is this list the contenders? Or is it the list of scores excluded from consideration?
It is the list of eligible scores.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
