I was excited yesterday when Harris contacted me to participate in a
poll about the future of digital music. Being an avid md user, I
thought I'd get a chance to plug md for this nationwide poll. Instead,
I found not ONE question about MD. It was all about MP3. It asked a
question such as, "What devices do you use to listen to music," and MD
was not even a choice. This survey took about 15 minutes to fill out,
and there wasn't even one place where a respondent could offer any
answer besides those already provided. Needless to say, I rated mp3 as
poorly as possible. One question that stuck out to me was, "Which of
the following digital music players would you be more likely to buy:
One with 32MB memory for $149, a 64MB unit for $199, a 96MB unit for
$239, or a 128MB unit for $269." There was no other option. I couldn't
continue the survey without checking one of the boxes, even though I
wouldn't buy any of them.
I guess this could be interpreted 2 ways: Either the people making this
poll think that md is out for the future of digital music, or else they
are clueless.
Anyway, I thought you might be interested to see just another way md is
left out of the places where it belongs.
