It's very sad to me, all this business of record stores closing, cds dying. How can downloads possibly be as attractive as a physical disc of some sort? :(
One can only hope...

The medium has always sucked, but vinyl still seems to be going strong... Didn't the pundits say something about the death of vinyl a few years ago???
Yes, sometimes change can be hard. Thanks to the Internet there will always be a nich market for us types.

The really sad part is, where are all those Kids who used to work at Tower Records going to find jobs, where the boss lets them hang chunks of metal from there faces.
