I thought the discussion was on out-of-print music. It's extremely frustrating to find out that the perfect piece of music you've just heard is out of print, and no plans to re-issue it. I think most of us agree about supporting our musicians, heck I own record/tape/CD of more recordings than I care to admit. But how can you buy a CD of something, when it doesn't exist?

I buy the CDs, and reburn the to CD or minidisc the track that I want to listen too frequently...but I still have the CDs. In the English Country Dance group to which I belong, I purchase two CDs, one for the group and one of me. The cost of music is cheap compared to the cost of not finding bands in the future when you need them. mm At 01:51 PM 10/1/2001 -0700, you wrote: >I am not a musician and I strongly object to the idea of sharing recorded >tracks.
