I think that's deliberate by the manufacturers, I remember watching Tomorrow's World when CDs were in development, they spread Jam on one and then put it in a player and played it to demonstrate how durable they were, they also said that the technology was there to put 11 albums on one CD.

Seriously, having all your music in one teeny tiny little device is just so miraculous that it outweighs any sound quality issue for me. It's not like I'll have the best of anything sound-wise, turn table, cassette, or CD, so the convenience of an iPod makes it the winner in my book.
I love having an ipod/iphone for convenience when at work or walking or travel or driving, but I love putting on a record or cd. It makes it more...experience-y. One doesnt eliminate the need for the other in my books. And since my turntable has an ipod hookup, it will also act as an external speaker for digital music. Plus it has a Cd player AND cassette, just for you, KT. |

Not to mention proper cover art!
I got a Canadian version (that was the excuse for the cheaper prices in that one record shop) of a Doors vinyl album for Christmas once, it had no lyrics printed, just the basic covers, such a disappointment! |

my country appologized.
I broke open the vinyl of THe Boy With No Name today and sighed a giant cover art sigh. Also, I LOVE liner notes. One of my goals in life is to be thanked in liner notes. |

| Have I ever mentioned the worst Polish - catholic custom of all freaking time? No? Annual priest visit. I AM NOT JOKING. It's basically the worst day of the whole year. You guys should see how's my family acting today in anticipation of this profound happening which is basically a random priest dude coming to your house for 5 minutes so you will give him money for nothing. Puke. |

How do the priests make it to all the homes?
I realized today that my cousin's March wedding is in a catholic church. I don't know how to do anything at church, never mind catholic church! There is going to be lots of kneeling and crossing and stuff and me being confused.
ALTHOUGH everyone seems to have received their invite but me. I think this means I shouldn't have to go. There may or may not be an email going back and forth between my mother and I of us both trying to get out of it. |

maaan, sometimes I'm really, REALLY glad to be a non-baptized half-christian-half-muslim kid... all those "We Are The Pope!"-headlines were quite enough for me, thank you very much... |

| Update: the conversation with the priest of course focused on my unemployment and then he asked "But...you do have a boyfriend, right?". Way to make me feel worse than usual, thankyouverymuch. Ugh. |

Yeah, advice from a man who doesn't know what a relationship or a job actually entails. Fuck him. You be who you wanna be.
