Well, I haven't heard all of these but it sounds like a pretty good list to me. I'll be ordering Inconsolable Secret myself soon. You should also get "Dark Matter" by IQ, that's the best new one I've heard lately.

I have In Absentia and Coma Divine by PT. they're both great
I love shopping at my favorite record store because they specialize in prog... they move so much of it and sell it for less than Amazon..
I have yet to get a copy of the Shaming of the True, Mike...great from what I've heard.
Yesterday I was at Borders shopping for prog, which is a mistake when some fat emo preppy chicks came up and started looking through the CDs quote:
Prep: "Dream Theater... Porcupine Tree? That stuff scared the hell out of my friend. It's her fault for hanging out with stoners. They all just sit around, get stoned and listen to this sh*t"
me: "Pardon me, Free Willy, but not all of us do drugs... we just enjoy listening to music that expands the mind."
Prep: "Damn hippie"
Me: "Ahh, f**k off! Go find some sh*t to fill your head with.."
Prep: "DAAAAAAD!!!"
Me: "Oh F**K!" (Runs to car and drives to the sanctuary of my prog-selling record shop..)

You're ordering THAT for general circulation at the public library? Pretty cool area....those albums would decay and turn to dust before they were borrowed in my 'ville.

Yea, in Europe the things are preaty simple and much better than here in USA. Everywhere you can find stores or libraries for renting audio CD-s like "Blockbuster".You rent a CD for 2$ , burns it, and after several months you will get a collection abot 4-500 CD,s.
We must recognize and to acknowledge that we live in a non democracy state, in jaws of big companies.

Eh.. but if you have just a burned copy.. you don't actually have the CD. You just have a copy of it. Like having mp3s. NOT THE SAME THING AS REAL CDS AT ALL!

Yes ... and it's not legal. People with huge collections of burnt CDs or mp3s without the original CDs can't really prove that they had the original albums ...

My Latest CDs (in the last week) seem to reflect a balance between Ambient and Prog-Metal:
Brian Eno - Discreet Music [Remastered]
Petrucci & Rudess - An Evening With...
Kamelot - Fourth Legacy
Symphony X - Twilight in Olympus and Damnation Game
------------- If it's worth playing, it's worth playing loud!

I copied the book too. I like to have pictures, lyrics, everything. I have copy-machine in my home, and It does not matter. The quality is the same. I,m not so rich like our friend "politian" who has 9500 Cd,s.

After work today, I stopped by Newbury Comics and ALL THE FRANK ZAPPA CDS WERE ON SALE!!!
In the past, the price was the only thing that scared me away from his
material (16.99 for One Size Fits All? are you kidding me?)
But now all his stuff was 7.99!!!
I got We're Only In it For the Money, Absolutely Free, Overnite
Sensation, and Waka/Jawaka. (I already owned Hot Rats, Roxy and
Elsewhere, Can't Do that Onstage Anymore volume 2, and One Size Fits
All)
I also picked up remastered Yessongs used!!!
Yes, I made out like a bandit indeed.
