Agreed. If someone recommends a band, I will check out a couple songs to see if I like them or not. If i can find them on itunes to preview it, i will, but if not then the other way it goes. Then if i do like them, i will go out and buy the cd. As musicians ourselves, I think it is important to support the artists and pay them for their creativity and hard work. With cd prices being low ($$9.99-12.99) compared to what they used to be ($16.99-$18.99), buying cds is defenitely an option now. I thing if it weren't for the development of napster or kazaa, we would still be purchasing cds at $18.99 (those damn greedy label heads). So the development of these has defenitely worked in our favor, besides the whole downloading aspect.
Also, I agree with ya DS about 192 not being able to replace cd quality.
