I don’t like the commercials, plus local radio in this town sux IMHO…
CD’s are tough, I don’t generally like to listen to the same artist for an hour and a half… plus, former roommates/girlfriends have liberated multitudes of CD’s from my collective prison… plus I like someone else to be pick <u>new</u> music…
My comp has a digital out, so I have it optically hooked up to the home theater system, so when I cook I like to have music on, and then when the guests arrive I can tune it to a station and leave it…kinda the same as DMX, if you know what that is…
when they need you to do something, sometimes it is cheaper and quicker for them to buy you the card, instead of going to a full service design house.
a new digital sound card is only about $40… and my girlfriend has a 333 with 96 megs RAM, and it streams beautifully… I mean I’m impressed how good it looks, and sounds. =) (she has a built in sound card which we have hooked up to comp speakers)
