I agree wholeheartedly, actually.  MP3 is great if I want that one random 
song, or if a friend tells me, "check it out, this is a cool track," and if
I like it, I go purchase the CD, or add it to my CDnow gift registry and
hope that someone else buys it for me. =)

[shameless plug: I turn 19 on Thursday, so if anyone feels like getting me
                 a gift, even though I've never met any of you, go to
                 http:[EMAIL PROTECTED] =) ]

I know what you mean... also, MP3, unless at 192kbps or higher, sounds 
much crappier than the CD.  My MP3's are around for a very simple reason...
when I'm at my computer and I'm too lazy to reach into my CD's to find a 
particular one, I just find a directory of mp3's and play 'em.
