Hey! The thing that I dig about mp3's is the simple fact that it's software technology developed for an already existing platform. In order to play 8-tracks, you have to have an 8-track player. But to play mp3's, you have to have a computer. While not everyone is blessed with such luck, those of us who have one now also have the ability to listen to music on it. Firm buttocks. Aaron
