Since getting into mp3 about 3 years ago the amount of records I have bought
has dramatically gone up, mostly because I want the cd and covers etc and
better quality. Maybe the big record companies think that people will start
downloading more 'underground' and 'experimental' music becasue its free and
realise they like it and not just buy from the mainstream. Certainly
happened to me in that way. It ALL started with UNKLE (even if its not the
*best* example) =)
