I only have one more thing to add. You guys don`t know what your missing with all this downloading crap. I used to wait MONTHS to get albums and when they finally arrived man....................it was like Christmas. I also used to save money and take the freakin` train to New York City and Toronto from Montréal a few times a year just to hunt down that elusive rare album. Toronto`s Sam The Record Man used to be one of the best music stores in North America !

I hear you Vibe, in fact I've been in STRM's shop. The pleasure of seeking out an album or long lost single is one of the pleasures of collecting, as is browsing the 12" gatefold sleeve while listening.

I love it when bands & labels that allow legal downloads. Itunes is still too pricey compared to CDs, and I eagerly await the inevitable subscription model that they are said to be pushing for with the labels.
But Emusic's choices are limited. I checked out a few acts that I would be interested in and frankly, for example, seeing the only Thin Lizzy album offered is a Live from 1975 gives me the idea that you're not getting the cream of the crop too often.

Just a small selection (the top rated tags at PF which are available at emusic.com, one of the little note symbols next to the album name will link to the album page @ emusic).

Of course emusic.com isn't usually the place where you find mainstream music ... sometimes - as it's the case with Thin Lizzy - some "B-albums" are available there. But you'll find many key albums of prog rock/metal there, and a lot of alternative artists which are related to prog (post-rock, experimental/avant-garde). They have an extensive list of interesting classical music and jazz, for example in the last few weeks the entire discography of John Coltrane was added.


What a great resource that page is, Mike, great job!  Clap
