    Death of CDs and Small Music Groups

    Don't most people have the ability to rip CD to a file? I would assume most folks own a Laptop or Desktop PC .. but maybe they don't anymore. :dunno:

    Hobbyist Vs someone who owns a decent stereo?

    If memory serves me well :cool: .. Back in the day .. late 70's for me .. don't remember folks thinking of their stereo system as a hobby. At some point .. that all changed IMHO. By the time I got back into Vinyl after a long hiatus (2000) .. I know I started to think of my stereo rig as a hobby.

    R.I.P. David Soul

    Something that most people don't know is that David Soul injured his spine during the making of the pilot episode of Starky & Hutch. It's the scene where he jumps on the hood of a car. He suffered from that injury for the rest of his life.

    Name a movie that affected you deeply

    Movies usually run about 90 - 120 minutes ... which is usually not enough time to have "long term" affect on me. TV series or mini-series in another story. They run long enough (time & content wise) to have a lasting affect on me. Kung Fu TV series (1972-1975) had a long term affect on me ...

    Component with the Biggest Impact on the Sound

    IME & IMHO .. it's all about the system. Nothing is more important than anything else .. the biggest impact on sound can be found in the weakest link in the chain .. "at the time" .. usually discovered in hind-site.

    I'm listening.

    Detailed listening is solo for me on my audio rigs. I play music alone .. all by myself .. and when I play tunes alone .. I prefer to be by myself. :cool: Wife likes music in her work car and when she's in "her" kitchen .. she let's me use it sometimes. ;) If one of her favorite artists...

    Why Do People Lose the Love of Music?

    If most people planned a road trip in the same way they plan their lives .. they would have ended up on an episode of "Unsolved Mysteries".
