![]() ![]() Fair point about having less $ in the car if broken into though. Quote:
Good call on e-books too. I have refused to get a kindle because I like to read books! I likely will get one for travelling though, I should have recently. That's what I think about these things. Great for tralling but that's it. It's a shame they've fully replaced, or are beginning to replace, the tangible product. Oh I can't stand having cd boxes in the car. They clutter the car/glove box up, they get broken, cracked, scratched.. no! Much better to put them in a wallet for the car. On my recent trip we had a very tidy wallet that held all our driving cds. Said cds were also sequentially numbered but there were no tracklists... just one massive mix. See - we lived dangerously!

Unless I'm in an urgent rush, I always fill every CD to capacity. That's where B sides, and live versions go!

Of course! They're 80 minutes long so why wouldn't you?? I never understand that.

It is true that iTunes will not replace your files if they are lost - so it's important that you be careful. This should not come as any big surprise, though - no music retailer on Earth is going to replace your records or CDs if you should be careless with them. Get an external hard drive. Back-up your purchased files. One interesting advancement is Cloud. Amazon offers this for instance - if you purchase music downloads you have the choice of either downloading them or putting them in your Cloud, where you can access them from anywhere on any wireless device. I do very much enjoy the CD format - but the only gripe I have about the loss of this format is that downloads are just not a complete product in thier currrent incarnation. 256kbps as opposed to 1411kbps is a substantial loss of fidelity whether you can hear it or not. It's safe to assume that advancements in technology will allow for greater quality with smaller files sizes in the future, and many albums are already mastered with MP3 technology in mind so the file compression is almost meaningless in terms of sound impact. Ultimately I can live with this. Just knowing how many millions of tons of plastic (and thus oil and energy) will be spared is alone enough reason to abandon the CD format. I'm surprised it hasn't happened already considering the astronomical amount of plastic waste the CD format has generated over the past three decades. No offense, but while I agree that technology is cold, it is actually the exact opposite of decadent.

Does Bruce Springsteen make regular cameos in your life too then? It's always fun when he makes an appearance...
![]() Sadly, as much as I love John Cusack, the film is nowhere near as good as the book. That's so often the case though.

Well, while John Cusack's character is more my style, the "personality" pretty much was covered by Jack Black's character. I swear the movie just a remake of my "typical" days back when I worked in record stores...from '73-80.

What about old people who have no idea how to DL music?
Like my mom. Poor mom - she won't be able to buy the 57th version of Elvis' Greatest Hits. Seriously, though.I still buy CDs - most of the time it's cheaper to buy a CD the first week it comes out than to buy online song-by-song for 99 cents each. |

Yeah, my mom's not too happy about this either. She doesn't understand computers and the internet.
