Wrong. The best music deal ever was a 80 vynil (vinyl? I seriously can't remember the right one, FECK!!!) collection -including Beatles, U2, Pink Floyd, Zeppelin, Springsteen and many other classics- that a friend of a friend was giving out for free at a second hand spanish website. I mean, for fucking free, you know?
It goes without saying that I was a minute too late to get the package. Major failure.
Although I will probably start to write "vynil" histerically next time
But on the computer there's room enough to have them in lossless. I play music on pretty damn good speakers from the computer. It's also good to be able to burn CDs for people from lossless files, so that they won't suffer double compression. And of course... it's the way to have good backups if a CD breaks!
