What if the "cloud" only included the crappy remixes/re-recordings that
I find on Amazon sometimes?  What really sucks is that you can't listen
to the entire track to discern if this is truly the version you are
looking for.  Usually your only line of defense is to read user reviews
of albums to see if they are crying "foul" over the integrity of the
songs on the CD/MP3 album/whatever.  Of course not every album is going
to have user reviews...I've been there.

Also, as someone pointed out, who wants to be stuck buying or
downloading overly-compressed music?  I only use Amazon for
hard-to-find single tracks, usually for compilation albums that I
create on my external HDDs.  I gladly use HD Tracks when something I
really want pops up in their catalog.

Alas, the popularity of the MP3 has made that a less than viable
alternative most of the time.

Returning to Guido F's original post; indeed, the Touch has been a
revelation.  I used to have all of my CD booklets packed into three
extremely heavy CD folders.  All were in alphabetical order, and were
numbered by disc.  While this made it easier to pick CDs from my 300
disc player, grabbing my iPod Touch and loading iPeng makes it pretty
much the ideal way to listen to music.
