I can't force myself to accept the digital music purchasing idea. I've purchased music through iTunes before, but it really irks me. I need to have the physical copy in my hands. I like the album booklets and inserts (and lyrics, sometimes), the hidden artwork behind a black CD holder piece, the CD artwork, the fact that if my hard drive crashes, I have something to listen to and I haven't lost my entire library. No, I didn't buy the 13 versions of Smashing Pumpkins' Zeitgeist and I don't plan on buying them, but I do like rarities or accidental version releases, like 311's Grassroots, that become collectibles. Yes, I'm a slave to the music industry and their materialistic ways. I'm just glad I wasn't big into music when cassettes were huge. I'm sure in about 10 years (or even right now) someone will say the same thing about CDs.The length of this title is fitting for an emo song. I suppose it could always use a few more words just to be safe...
