    Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, muddycat
    **** off you Septic ****.

    Ahem. Sorry 'bout that.

    It would appear to be 0.79 of our dear old English pahnds.

    Or about $247.98 after Gulf War III.

    Ooh, I appear to have had a flashforward. ;^)

    Finally, someone called me a ****.
    I'd of thought it would have been 0.99. That's good tho.
    That fucking bush, we can't take 4 more years.

    5 gig? Piffle. All I've done so far is transfer my record collection
    and I've used 15G of my 60G Zen's drive.

    I cant be reading that right surely.

    It seems to say that it doesnt charge per song but its based on the format
    and quality you pick to download.

    ie 1mb of download is only 0.01 US Dollar!!
    So an average good quality downloaded song is say 3-4mb its gonna cost about
    4 cents!!?????

    There has to be a catch surely???

    Good job usenet doesn't charge by the punctuation used.

    Did three sentences really require four exclamation marks and eight
    question marks?

    Do they take your credit details and then let you just download away whilst
    charging you each time?

    Can see there are going to be a few big credit card bills... :)

    This strikes me to be a bit like Blaney's tyre argument - can you _really_
    tell the difference?

    Yes okay if you put through a top level hi-fi equipment, in a silent room -
    maybe, but otherwise?

    It's a small collection. That included the CDs I had too, most of which
    were purchased to get one bloody song that I liked. That was in the days
    before Limewire though.

    Not any higher than 256, no I can't. Lower than 256 I can tell the
    difference between that and a cd, and I want to listen to what I
    perceive as "cd quality" music. 128 sounds awful, and I normally do
    192 but in this case I figured I had so much space to play with I may
    as well make them 256.
