1. Hey Sparky, could you visit little MilesColtrane in 1980 and warn him that...
almost no one will pay for recorded music in the future?

Maybe he'll go on to get a business degree in that timeline.

2. I've actually had to defend my choice to PAY for music & movies
I'm a movie buff and one of my movie buff acquaintances always grills me about why I continue to purchase DVD movies and why I never download off the Internet.

And I respond, "I would rather pay because I prefer to support the Arts, and besides I can afford it".
And she is like "BUT YOU COULD GET IT FOR FREE!!!"

And the next time I see her, we'll have this same conversation, like we always do...:eyes:
