well me perosnally form what I have read can't see digital music taking over
totally..I mean CD sales are back up again with the report that due to poor
quality etc downloads are not getting downloaded as much as everyone would
like to think.....
I like to download music but for me I will also DL and then buy whatever I like
on my preffered format which is either Vinyl or CD. there's osmehting about
having something in your hand that is what it is that really attracts me...I
love my box set of Derek & the Dominos (non 313 sorry) and will treasure it
forever, now if it was digital how could I do that?

so i know it's poor form to answer my own mail but....
....if transmat (maybe a bad example, but a big label) went all
digital...no vinyl but you can still buy a pack with artwork etc from
record shops that allows you to DL the track say a max of 5 times would
everyone else jump too? there has to be a point when that is true
surely (there's be a DL only version for less too)
that might be a way for labels to survive.
any comments? or is this kinda discussion all played out like jaguar? :)
