Amen. I wish more people could see this. I also with the industry would stop overpricing CDs. If all CDs were between $5-8, I would never download an album again if I could buy the real thing. |

I
have a cheap rio mp3player. after I bought it I used it a lot, now it starts getting dust. I keep on dloading, but lately I'm buying a lot of albums... maybe soemthing is going on, but for istance, the other day I bought 3 albums (also the sonic youth s/t) spending for everything 29 euros (...31 dollars, I think). It's a good price...I found an AREA lp for 7 euros! I'm starting (maybe I'm getting "mature") to download stuff just to make a selection of what I'm going to buy later-maybe this is also beacuse I have less time now to listen to music. Having a vynil version of something is wonderful, of course. I just listen to my mp3 reader on train, and it's a magical container of bootlegs. that's it. |

I have a Creative Zen Touch 20 gig. I only download really high quality so there's only 5 gigs left and I've got only about 2,500 songs on it.

I agree with this. I don't take mine every single place I go, but listening to music out of context, like Wolf Eyes (for example) on a road trip makes you feel differently about what you listen to. I buy around three or four cds a month to make up for it, so to say, but plunking down 15 bucks a time when there's a lot of things I need to be buying are really hard. That's why I download, or I can't buy the album. Asking my folks to get onto Amazon and buy "Dial 'M' For Motherfucker" is kind of awkward.

I think its the best peice of technology ever created. Your whole music library, (for me about 250 records) all compressed into a tiny digital micro chip box to listen to whenever and wherever you want. Except mine has a pretty shabby battery

I own a small one. 500MB about 120 4min songs in mp3.
I love it though, I get to cary around a good 5-9 hours of music around with me, whether it be school, the library whatever. I dont listen when walking though because I turn it to loud and Im blind to whats around me. |

fuck an iPod.
I bought an MP3/Disc Man that plays MP3 data discs. I had a shit load of grateful dead concerts in MP3 formats filling up data discs. I had been burning them out slowly but surely onto CDs, and one day I was in Walmart and said, shit I should just buy this MP3 player. It did indeed change my life. THe batteries last 88 hours! I can carry around around 400-600 songs on any CDR. THe dead worked out so well, I painstakingly converted my ENTIRE disc collection into a handful of MP3 discs. Dont let the corporations fool you! fuck and iPod!

I have an old Rio Volt CD/mp3 player and now a friend is about to bring an Ipod from the US for me.
man, I'm so excited, it's the 5th generation 30GB one...damn, I don't even have so much music on my hard drive ;-). ![]() I'm gonna have the black one though.

mp3 player like the ipod are all about portability.suchfriends,as you said i used to have a cd player that can read data discs filled with mp3,but now i have an ipod mini (kindly given b y a friend of mine at a more than reasonable price,like 80 bucks for a 4 gb player),and i must admit it is indeed useful.no need to switch cds,playlists etc make it a nice travel companion.

I'm ditching CD's sometime this summer. I'm going to sell them all off and rebuild my collection in Vinyl, then just download all the albums I have on Vinyl for my MP3 player.
