Does your sofa have a steering wheel? Cool!

And you can walk at 70 mph. Even cooler.

No offence: but change the chaffing record.

Can you play the tracks in a vacuum? No. So you're wrong.

Now hop it.

And there's only three albums worth downloading on the entire site.

Can't you cope with multi-thread conversations? Obviously not.

And do get a grip. Last I checked, Slowdive, Durutti Column, New FADS,
Neds and Brian had scarcely been heard of by the mainstream. I just
looked for them on eMusic and could find nothing.

Cheers,

They were mainstream 10 years ago, 20 in the case of Vini Reilly/Durutti
Column!

You are wrong. There is a burn count limit of 7, but you can work around
this with Roxio Toast 7.

Yes, with a little extra work, and extra software to avoid a loss in
audio quality.

Toast Titanium 7 can create a disk image of iTunes purchased music. Then
you can make audio CDs from that image.

The burn limit is for a playlist; tracks can be burned any number of
times by changing the playlists.

Brian? Mainstream? I think not.

Did the Durutti Column ever receive any mainstream airplay? Did they
ever chart? I would be surprised.
