   Thanks for the comments and +1s, everyone. Here's a revised version with variably tall bars and some decoration. The good thing about it is that it also works in monochrome.

   The friendly squareness of the typeface is a courtesy of an excellent Geogrotesque.

   Really nice, and you're right, looks wonderful in monochrome as well.

   Thanks, Bryan. I really like it too, but one person said "a music service" and I just can't shake this reference off... damn it.

   This one communicates the message clearer. How bout green/orange/red being on the those bars? Like on a soundesk or hi-fi system.

   @Cameron - that's the thing, I like it the best myself too, but it just looks too damn much like a music reference :-|

   Hadn't thought of the music reference until you mentioned it and you're right, it is hard to shake. That said, I think the colour contributes quite a bit to that impression - I get it much less looking at the monochrome version. Maybe a more muted colour like a grey instead of the yellow could help? Overall though, I do prefer this version (and the first one), the concept feels more subtle.
