My computer has a CD-RW and I honestly say that I avoid using it. Talk about jumping through hoops to make a damn CD. And CD's poor editing abilities and awkward size (compared to MD) just leave me shaking my head. Too bad we didn't go directly from vinyl to MD twenty years ago. > Hmmm, as I never get tired of repeating (being a smug Brit), MD is > *huge* more-or-less everywhere other than the US.
