well me perosnally form what I have read can't see digital music taking over totally..I mean CD sales are back up again with the report that due to poor quality etc downloads are not getting downloaded as much as everyone would like to think.....
yeah mp3 euw. DL would have to be full wav or aiff to succeed imho (around 70mb for one tune). so yeah mebbe cds is still the way to go.
I like to download music but for me I will also DL and then buy whatever I like on my preffered format which is either Vinyl or CD. there's osmehting about having something in your hand that is what it is that really attracts me...I love my box set of Derek & the Dominos (non 313 sorry) and will treasure it forever, now if it was digital how could I do that?
fair point hence my 'pack' suggestion below :). this also allows record shops to survive too.
