I have this book though I can't say I've read the whole thing.  A lot of the 
essays are quite interesting but the collection is a bit all over the place. 
 The editors' take on "subversive" or "revolutionary" music is pretty 
literal, focusing a lot on 3rd world politics and only covering technology 
from the Negativland/Pluderphonics angle.  Personally, I would be interested 
in a more philisophical approach to the question of what is "subversive" 
music but there are enough good essays to make it worth having around.
Anyway, thanks for prompting me to dig it out and take another look.
