Hello, Bob.

I haven't listened to the "top 40" stuff since about 1995 myself
(granted, I'm 34, so the "decades" are different for me).  I
mostly now just trade in MP3s with friends of the same musical tastes.

The problem is that music is no longer music; it's a machine that grinds
out talentless idiots for a less-than-intelligent crowd that will settle
for anything that remotely sounds like it has a beat.  That reminds me of
the line that Elwood Blues says on the introduction of the Blues Brothers'
CD, "Briefcase Full of Blues".  It goes something like "in
2006, blues will only be found in the classical section at your local
public library".  It's darn near that now with many types of music,
sadly.

Later,
Sean
