well, to buy the music i like in stores, i have to travel an hour or so (usually). [extreme points follow] so is that to say that i should start buying top40 because at least i can go into a store and pick it up? should i stop buying your records, jeff and peter, because my local stores don't carry them? ;) see what i mean? that's a really extreme view, of course, but what i'm saying is don't denigrate me - pity me. :) it was a boon when borders came to my town. granted borders ain't exactly a giant of social justice, but at least it's a store that understands that music is art, not product. * #### a disturbance in a system. #### laerm. @voicenet.com ##:# it's not a case of doing what's right/it's just the way i feel that matters/tell me i'm wrong/i don't really care icq: 5562209
