You said — As I type this, I am downloading a CD from Amazon.

I see..., you’re in that 8% category... eh?


In second place is Amazon, which claims about 8-percent of MP3 purchases.


Let me ask you this... what is the bit rate for the MP3 files over at Amazon?

Also, for people who may want to know...

Advanced Audio Coding...

The Apple iTunes Music Store has their music in 256 kbps AAC format. Some people say that they can’t tell it from the full CD-quality uncompressed format. I know some audiophiles say they can, but I can’t... :-)

Also, take a look at a Microsoft employee who dumped his Zune... LOL...
