This is obviously an option, but I sure hope it never happens - at
least with the current way of Internet sound distribution. I hope the
time will never come when the only option for buying music is buying
it in a compressed format - such as MP3, MD, etc. Sure I like my
MiniDisc, but I never buy a pre-recorded disc when I can buy a better
copy on CD and just record it to MD (with, more than likely, a better
result).
