Tesla is one of my all-time favs as far as 80's rock goes. I wonder if/when it will be made available on Napster and the like.

Vinyl Rules.
I hate that "perfect" sound that studios try to achieve with CDs.
Vinyl has soul, warmth, depth. It sounds real.

I agree, VINYL RULES ! However, there is one application that CDs have it waaaaaaaay over vinyl...

...Ya ever try to play a record in yer vehicle ? Difficult to do, particularly without lookin' as idiotic as Laurel & Hardy did in one of their films (Busy Bodies, 1933)....

So, in my opinion, it's CDs (haven't gone the IPOD route yet) for the car...Beats cassettes all to pieces, which beat 8-tracks all to pieces, which beat vinyl all to pieces, which beat havin' to sing as ya drive down the highway...
WVRC - WLIT - WADC/WIBZ - WCEF - WKLC - WOAY FM - WTNJ - WOAY TV - WBTQ - WKKW - WHYL

If it feels good, DO IT! And do it once for me...

U.K. Music Label Creates a Vinyl-MP3 Hybrid
While the copyright fight rages between big record companies and their customers, some smaller, independent labels are moving in with innovation instead of litigation.

thats nice, i'm glad to see labels looking for ways to not sue their customers..
Doesn't MSNBC stand for the Media that Spins the News for Barrack's Cabinet?

Technically, no label is looking for a way to sue their customers. Labels are suing people that AREN'T customers... choosing to download illegally (for which no one is really being busted)... and then SHARE illegally (for which plenty are being busted.)

But I see your point.

In other news, Steve Jobs announced that he'll be happy to raise the price of an iTunes song 30-40 cents IF the labels will remove the DRM requirement.
