   BUMP!   
      
   I forgot that one of the songs used in the background music of Peevue sounds   
   like it was directly ripped from a Moby song. Did Moby and/or Orbital give   
   permission to Peevue to air their music?

   > You may remember the Prevue Guide, which was the precursor to the TV Guide   
   Channel and Pop. It showed TV listings of your local cable company on the   
   bottom of the screen while promos and stuff were on top. It used original   
   music from James and Aster    
   for Prevue Guide and the early days of Prevue Channel, then they went for   
   production music from the Killer Tracks library and spliced together 15-second   
   snippets of those songs. This practice continued after Prevue Channel   
   rebranded as Peevue in 1998.    
   The background music in the station ID’s at the time seemed to be very   
   similar to music from Orbital.
