You are too hard on yourself, Dustin, and no more a pain than anyone else.  
Most of the time, you are easier to get along with than most people.  .... 
Oh, never mind.

Most people still get their music from CDs.  People who have portable music 
players, even iPod owners who could use iTunes, overwhelmingly use CDs as a 
means of getting the music they want.  Even people like me, who are familiar 
with legal online music repositories will buy CDs for clean files and 
archives.  Music industry hysterics about portable music players being 
nothing but repositories for pirated music are dubious at best.  Studdies 
have shown that people with portable music players are more likely to 
purchase music than people who don't have portable music players.

Sorry about the Amazon thing.  I have the same problem using Debian.  Mepis 
2003 is able to run the RAM as is the current version of Simply Mepis.  You 
have to click an I agree to set it up but it works after that.  The WMA does 
not work.  Wow, what a great service "Music You Should Hear" is.  I might buy 
some Snooks Eaglin CDs, recommended by The Who.  Thanks for the tip.

What other Music services do people use?  Yahoo's page sucked on Mepis because 
they require use of their music player to get beyond the flash banner ads.  
Archive.org is great, especially if you are a New Orleans Radiators fan.  
Magnitune.com is fun but Etch does not deal with it's m3u out of the box.  
The default radio stations in Amarok are interesting, but I almost never 
bother.  Where do you get your music?
