I've noticed a LOT of people blatantly doing this lately and IMHO, it's incredibly lame. It's one thing to unload things you don't want or listen to any more but a whole other ball of wax when you dub 15 extremely rare records you've had (and enjoyed) for years and then auction them off for as much as you can get, while keeping a digital copy. Wack, wack, wack. If you really want to make some money quick, why not just shoplift cd's at all your local record stores and sell them back for 10 cents on the dollar. Pretty much the same difference, but backassward. Me, I'd rather feel good about myself knowing that I'm not fucking over artists and labels I like... yrs, a crotchety old person named brock. ps. As for the question, you can't beat a CDR for low media price, flexibility and compatibility. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
