You know; your earlier rant is indicative of how I hear a lot of people explaining how they feel about all this new but useless technology. First they use everyone as guinea pigs by selling the crap before it is perfected and letting the consumers endure the problems; "Model's 1-5 all suck; you must buy model no 6."
Then all the copyright hoohah; they can't sell music because it isn't much good, so they slap tons of program driven locks on everything to make it worse. Now I hear the newest digital equipment will have the copyguard built-in to the units; and as usual it will compromise the sound.
You know what? I'm sticking with vynil; the weasals can't mess with that.
