That’s quite a jump.

I absolutely love it and recommend it to everyone who consumes music at the high levels like me. Note – it bypasses iTunes completely which is a big plus!

As far as CD’s go, I will argue with Roger to the death about whether CD’s are still valid, or not. I believe they are. However, I have recently purchased my first Ipod, due to threats of my CD’s getting tossed out of the tour van window. One CD buyer down, maybe thousands to go.

Before Spotify I used Grooveshark, but it was always impossibly hard to find non-major label bands on there. The only two things that bug me about it so far is that when searching for a band there’s no auto-complete or auto-correct. Makes me feel like we’re back in the days of “Ok. Type h. t. p. p. colon slash slash w. w. w. dot…”

For example, It’s True, Midwest Dilemma and Take Me To Vegas are easily found on Spotify, but you can also find them on iTunes and other places.
