The Academy Awards are this weekend, and TDS' very own movie makers—yes, we have two!—are giving you their picks for who is going win (or who they think should win). Do you agree with who they chose?
Cheap Tunes Tuesday: Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran began recording music in 2005 but headed to Los Angeles in 2010 to try and make it big. While playing an open mic night, Sheeran was spotted by actor/musician Jamie Foxx who recognized his talent and took Ed under his wing. Sheeran’s first album was released in 2011, and a year later he was collaborating with (and opening for) Taylor Swift, catapulting him to major fame—and for good reason. For $5, give his first album a listen.

Cheap Tunes Tuesday: Supertramp
When you’re starting out, it’s fairly typical for a band to make a living off essentially nothing. Eating ramen noodles and sleeping six guys to a studio apartment is more of the standard than the exception. All the sacrifice is worth it when you catch your first big break and get noticed to by a record label. Today’s band started much differently—they came from a penthouse, not an outhouse.

Should you bait email scammers?
Replying to a scam email and pretending to believe them and do what they’re asking is called scambaiting. Wasting these criminals’ time is seen in many circles to be a form of vigilante justice and there's even a hilarious TED talk devoted to the topic (you've got to watch it!). But should you bait these people? Well, it depends...
The chocolate and flowers your loved one really wants
Here's a helpful reminder: Valentine's Day is coming up quick. More precisely, Valentine's Day is Sunday. If you're looking to pick up a last-minute gift or a sweet treat for someone special, you can go the traditional route: A box of chocolates and/or a bouquet of flowers. But you don't want to be boring, do you? This Valentine's Day, you want to be a romance rock star. You will be with these refreshing ideas.
Cheap Tunes Tuesday: Fastball
Fastball has been making music for 21 years, despite having only one album hit it big. That album is a good listen though—poppy, folky, with a hint of alt rock. There's a reason it went platinum and has three certified single hits. You can score it today for only $5.
