my thoughts on the releases

[//\/\/]

my point is, that in the dayes of tape, you still had the option, eventually, to go out and buy the record - and you'd make sure you had the record, as you've said. a tape wasn't the same. with p2p, you had the option to go out and buy the cd - i only use p2p if i've got the cd, or the track isn't released. even then, the burned cd is lacking as a physical thing. with these releases, there's no extra option, you end up with the same thing, paid-for or not.
