I haven’t purchased a CD in almost 10 years, but that doesn’t make me a criminal. Gifts, legal music downloads and loaned CDs still make up parts of my library. That’s not to say I don’t want these vermin to be flushed as they deserve.

I’ll gladly support artists, and being an avid concert-goer, I do. They get MUCH more than my fair share of money from the swag I buy from tickets to t-shirts and stickers. The artists are a smart bunch of folks, and I think they’ve wised up to the dinosaur recording industry’s extortion.

I remember reading a story in Forbes in the late 80s early 90s about how the Grateful Dead was one of the richest entertainment enterprises in the world, and it was a group that famously rejected the music establishment.

Let’s see...I purchased Sergent Pepper as an album, 8-Track, cassette and CD. I think the thugs have received enough of my money.

I have Sirius Satellite radio and listen to it xclusively while driving OTR. Beats CDs. For 9/mo, it beats listening to CDs.
