I know this ages me, but 20-25 years ago, one could buy an album and have the majority of songs be worth listening to. I think the recording artists need to pack a few more songs of quality into their CD's. I would be more inclined to purchase them if they did.

I have to go alongwith you on the uality of new music; basically it sucks. When Napster was all the rage, I D/L'ed my share of MP3's, but I listened to some of the new stuff and it just didn't do anything for me. As far as Kaaza goes, being on a dial-up, it's really not practical; I've decided to build a server, rip my 300+ CD collection to Ogg format, and just run it through my home audio system- I'm just getting ready to rip my first CD; I think it'll be Jimi Hendrix "Axis bold as Love". Then I get to try it out through my audio system; THAT oughta piss off the neighbors!
