*Sigh* I think this may be like the first time I walked into a record store and found they had no records. Just got used to CDs, and now everyone is moving to them new-fangled downloads and whatnot. :icon_no: *searches for a smiley with grey hair and a cane* ;)

I still can't get over how many artists add crackles and pops from vynil records to their MP3's to give them character and life..
