I think the Jon Brion prodcution is way better than the current album. It ruins a few songs like "Better Version of Me" (I think that is the track that doesn't even sound single worthy even though it should have been.)

I totally love this ad for the iPad 2 Smart Cover :

It's very clever that they chose to use Fiona Apple's "Extraordinary Machine" as the music, but what's really genius is that they don't use any lyrics. Instead of going for the "Hard Sell" -- essentially calling the device an extraordinary machine (by Apple!), they instead turn the music into a winking inside joke. Very nice.
