Ok, you just go on thinking that while I rapidly lose interest.

A good example of the absurdity of arbitrary generalizations.

Heck, maybe someday people won't even know how to _spell_ phonograph.

Too late.  There used to be a cool used/bootleg shop in Orange County CA
called 'licorice pizza'.  There's your trivia, now archive it.

Look what wealth of wisdom is exchanged through the advent of free mail.


But seriously folks, In My Not So Humble Opinion, what matters most is
the content, not the media so much.  Good music is usually good even
when the sound quality is crappy.  I have some ASTRO-fantapes that
are pretty crappy quality, technically, but are still quite listenable
because the music is so good.  Given the choice, I'll take better
quality, but I'll go wherever the music goes.  I bought a record
player just so I could listen to exclusive ASTRO-vinyl tracks.

Enough already.  Why oh why did I help re-open this particular
can of worms?  

Don't listen to me... listen to Man or Astro-man?!
