Not all, but the remaster of 'Thick as a Brick' was totally worth the purchase. I'm only now replacing most of my cassette collection, with digital files from iTunes. Most of my CD collection is oddball stuff or newer stuff that came out in the last 10 years. -Adam

I grew up on Tull, been listening to it as long as I can remember (I've worn out 5 copies of Broadsword and the Beast). -Adam

CW dork Personally, I find iTunes to be far less restrictive than the WMA options. AAC is an actual published standard, unlike WMA (Which is purely proprietary MS), although the DRM wrapper for iTMS is proprietary. Since I backup my music to CD anyways (As audio) re-ripping if I might need an MP3 is pretty trivial. And iTunes is simply the best player I've run across. -Adam

Re: OT: need a Cure
AAC and Apple lossless encoding allow for higher quality than MP3 while consuming less space. I burn an audio CD for archiving, then rip it back into MP3 when I need music for things that don't understand the better formats. It's a pain, but I'd rather buy the music that's as high quality as I can get.

A year or two ago, an NZ band re-released their album only a couple of months after the first release. I was really annoyed until I heard the two extra songs on the radio, which really weren't up to the standard of the rest of the album. These days I'm re-listening to a lot of stuff that I already own. I'm now starting to appreciate the subtleties that I never picked up on when I was younger, and it's making me enjoy a lot of songs that previously didn't interest me. I'm also appreciating a good album as a work in itself, rather than just a collection of songs. On the other hand, most of my listening at the moment is iTunes on random play... I'm only lucky (I guess) that I never updated the worn-out cassettes for some of the releases so I'm not buying the CDs AGAIN... Send the cassettes back to the record company and tell them you've already paid for the music so you should get a discount on the CDs (I'm actually half-serious about this, but I also know how far you'll get). - Dave
