I don't mind downloads, although I tend to listen to them less than I listen to CDs. I also buy CDs on-line from Amazon or other On-Line stores, so that is money that he is losing out on since I am sending it elsewhere, but I think that it is more "fun" to go to a store and browse through the CDs and find CDs that I am surprise to find at the local store. I tend to buy mostly use CDs so they are cheaper than new CDs, but I can't help but buy a new CD at the CD store if it happens to be for a PA band that I am surprised to find. All of the big bands can be found at Best Buy or FYE, so it isn't that big of a deal to find at a CD store, but to find bands like Spiritual Beggars or Ayreon, or even The Flower Kings or Pain of Salvation at a local CD store it is kind of cool.

That's a darn shame, Scott. I love getting CDs too.

Of course. With all of the money I spend there I probably helped send his kids to Ivy League schools.

Besides of you... or course...
Sad news indeed...

I began a Jethro Tull marathon this morning. They are one of the few big prog bands that I do not have all of their studio albums for.

It's a make up exam - was supposed to be last night, but I have a lab on Thursday evenings that we're not allowed to miss.

A makeup exam? What exactly do you study?  |
