Say you are a typical recorded sound consumer, and over the last who

- hundreds CDs, prerecorded and your own recordings
with pop, jazz, classical music and spoken word.
Now you decide to invest the effort to put it all in one medium, so you
can throw away the turntable and the cassette deck. What will you do?
Rethink that decision. Does your life really NEED to be that tidy?
Couldn't you better spend the time required in listening to music
instead? You're no youngster, if you've collected all that stuff :-)
Use the time you have left in something more productive than
transcribing and cataloguing :-)
