This damn streaming shit is for the birds. It has destroyed one of my favorite passtimes, browsing record shops. I could do it for hours. Not only that, the bit rate is half that of a CD, the sound quality just isn't there.....not to mention the warm, fuzzy sound of an LP. I still the get the hard copy, and download to computer......I would be furious if my vast collection was lost at the whim of some asshole creating a virus, or the crash of a hard drive. I'll keep my CDs, thank you.
Lotta wisdom in this post, Wyche. I still prefer my physical collection, and adding to it. Spent many a day losing hours just browsing through record stores. We have one up here in Dayton called Omega Music. Just love going in there and leafing through all the CDs and vinyl. Just can't replicate that experience by downloading a file.
