A different approach. Is the b enough to be obvious?

I think so — I like this way more than the previous. As much as I adore Meta Serif though, I’m a smidge sad to see the disappearance of Rooney (always loved that on your site) (it feels happy).
I agree to looks way better this way
No worries Andrew, that is Rooney. It looks a little off at that size and weight — haven't got that far yet.
Liking this direction much more!
I’m not crazy about the mark. A couple of things that bug me:
• B and C are equally important, but different weights/sizes. The B is nearly invisible.
• General shape and colors are reminiscent of the Rdio logo.
I think the first go ’round was the better version. Perhaps an all-cap version would help you escape the first version’s penile resemblance?
@mike re: the rdio logo — I thought the same thing.
Whoopsie — did not look nearly close enough. But yay! Rooney’s lovely & I dig the sleek use of it!
Are the b and c equally important? I thought c would be as its your first name. Thought about putting a dot in the middle to pull off the "b"?
@rogie, yeah I gave that a try. Wasn't crazy about it though.

Trying it with a centre mark for the b. Other option is with a darker shade: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25343/darker.png
This is my favorite one so far. Simple, yet interesting.
