The idiots still haven't figured out that CD sales have slumped because the *content* of the disks sucks raw cess. Well, that, and the fact that only a moron would pay for something that helps support the RIAA.

I buy music CDs *only* direct from the artists. Here in Portland, OR, we are blessed wit ha nubmer of very tallented solo and group musical acts, who produce and sell their CDs directly to the audience at live performances. Mind you, I don't buy many - probably a half-dozen or so in the past several years; but I won't buy *any* other audio CDs.
