When at Rasputin music yesterday in Berekeley, I picked up a couple discs: Simon and Garfunkel greatest hits, and Talib Kwali’s “Quality” album.
It’s still true that cd’s give you the greatest flexibility. You can rip them, re-rip them, mix them, or anything. It’s still kindda weird that people are willing to pay 99 cents per iTMS song, when you only get 128kbps and what you can do it with it is so limited.
I really hope Apple does a subscription model soon, either that or offer lossless or at least higher quality (> 192kbps please) tracks.
