I'm not sure Zapple. I'm thinking that the convergence of technologies has
almost made the 'stereo' and the 'computer', one and the same. I'd love to
have my amplifier outfitted with a hard drive and just load everything onto
it. Same good sound, through the same equipment, just a little more
convenient to access.
I still buy my music in cd/dvd format. Honestly, the day I am forced to go
to itunes or some such method to get a new album, I won't enjoy it. With any
luck I'll never have to.
I'm leery of just owning a 'file'. Damn things become corrupt, or crash. I
like my back up copy to be the real mccoy. Having said that, I quite dig my
ipod, and wouldn't go back to a walkman/discman.

So what does this mean. You download an album then you can only play it on
your Ipod or computer. What happens with your home system that you spent a
lot of money for good sound.
Are you going to burn the albums you downloaded to CDR's to play them. I
can't see this happening.
