    They'll be around for decades, blaster. Even if your favourite albums stop selling in the stores, and you end up going down the mp3 route, there'll probably still be blank CDs for you to make your own recordings onto (from the mp3s).

    MikeF, it appears I've been misquoted due to a coding error... the above was not my text, but Rae's. Yes go out and perform live by all means, just don't rely on an outdated regime (record/tape/cd sales) to put food on your plate. My main point was, there are hundreds of professions that have...

    Eventually, yes. Just like with all the other professions which became extinct over the centuries. People with the passion will still write music, they just shouldn't expect to get paid for it.

    The way I see it, shoe-shiners also *did* make a living from shining shoes. However times change and there's no point trying to fight the inevitable. Noone makes a living shining shoes anymore, and one day (soon), noone will make a living selling CDs. Well, thanks :)

    Thanks for asking. I'll set up a free page with 10 - 15 of my tracks.

    The 'brown' note? There's an episode of Southpark about that. I'm inclined to believe it could be true, but if it's a myth it's a good one.

    Hehe, I actually don't use torrents for music myself, coz everything I need ends up here... http://alldj.org (stuff that's not available for purchase anywhere).

    Older (smaller) thumb drives are no problem, because under 4gb they are generally formated with the FAT32 file system, which all the stereos read these days, however most stereos and dvd players still DO NOT read the NTFS file system, which is generally what gets used when your thumb drive is...

    As I mentioned in another thread, torrents aren't movie-specific ;) Well worth learning how to use.
