Tracks in file form are useful and highly portable.

Can you not obtain the same material from say a compact disc?

Of course! And in fact, ripping your own can produce files that are much higher quality than any commercial-download site. But why buy a whole CD when you only what a few tracks? Then there's the unsigned independent artists. Their music may not be available as a CD, just as tracks downloaded from their web site.

In Canada where I live everything costs way more than stateside, for starters.

Canada is an interesting place. Great campsites. I know a lot of overseas folx that buy their DVDs from Canada - much cheaper than buying locally. And you have *Hershey's Canada* YUM. :) Did I mention Hershey's Canada?

Secondly the music the I listen to isn't this hard rock boom boom boom music that so many seem to favour.

I have a rather eclectic taste in music; always looking for new and different. The mass-marketed hip-hop/rap stuff makes my brain cramp.

Here's my fav streams from yesterday:
  (feed these urls to Audion or iTunes)

...gah. Maclaunch bounced this because the urls included raw ip addresses. So I made a playlist (.pls) file out of 'em. This should be directly usable in Audion etc.
