    Kinks 10 CD boxset on the way

    When I see people in my age group (20's and 30's) in music shops, usually I can tell the difference between those who buy vinyl and cd's. CD buying people are people who listen to mainstream pop/rock music and only buy what's on radio and listen to Lady Gaga and Nickelback and rely on top 40...

    Kinks 10 CD boxset on the way

    IMO CD's are useless in the era of digital files. They are so impersonal. I like mp3's and all, but if I'm going to OWN a copy of something, I'd prefer a copy on vinyl. There is a whole experience to a copy of something on vinyl that a 5 inch CD can't replicate, now that you can take an...

    Kinks 10 CD boxset on the way

    Umm, I am one of those "vinyl buying hipsters" you're talking about. I haven't bought a cd in nearly two years and have no desire to buy one again. I buy vinyl on a weekly basis. Vinyl is cooler and that's a fact. People who complain about lousy quality vinyl that skips are people who...

    Justin Bieber

    every generation has its overexposed pop star that you either love or hate, right now it's Bieber, Lady Gaga has the same type of thing but she doesn't have any stans here defending her honor. My issue isn't with Bieber but with AAG telling me that disliking Bieber negates everything else I...

    Justin Bieber

    Still laughing at the mentality that not being a fan of this generations' answer to Donny Osmond automatically means you hate all contemporary music and are stuck in a time warp.

    Justin Bieber

    I typed out a long-winded reply but it isn't worth it. You are so far off the mark with your assumptions about me it isn't funny. I love tons of current "pop" acts but because I don't like the one marketed to 12 year old girls I'm automatically someone stuck in a Reagan-era time warp who...

    Justin Bieber

    I can't believe a Nirvana fan would defend this tripe. It was acts like Spice Girls, Britney and Backstreet Boys who undid everything Nirvana, Pearl Jam and others worked to change about the music industry. After a half-dozen years of actual serious meaningful music, teen garbage took over...

    Justin Bieber

    Right, Backstreet Boys are soooooo popular, that is why their last album sold barely 100,000 copies when they sold 12 million copies of "Millennium" in 1999. Is 100k really a measure of success? I mean, by that logic Depeche Mode are still megastars, their last cd sold 200k. BSB are touring...

    Justin Bieber

    When there was little Michael Jackson, there was also Donny Osmond. Outside of that brief late 80's comeback, has he ever been relevant as an adult outside of doing the nostalgia thing? Justin Bieber hasn't done a thing to show that he's anything besides this generations' version of Aaron...

    Justin Bieber

    The prob with Bieber is that the media takes people like him too far. Even though I wasn't old enough for David Cassidy and Andy Gibb, I've seen enough boyband artists come and go in my lifetime that I have no doubt Bieber is going to be the same. Of pretty much all the BSB, NKOTB, N'Sync...

    Rolling Stones "Some Girls" deluxe edition coming

    1990? haha. Late 1979, Some Girls came out a year before I was born but I was alive (but not old enough to remember) for Emotional Rescue and Tattoo You.

    Rolling Stones "Some Girls" deluxe edition coming

    How long was it manufactured with the Lucy/Welch/Farrah/etc.. pictures? It was so cheap because it was "as is" because the top was falling apart a little and needed to be glued back together. Did that with no problem and it looks good as new :grinthumb .

    Rolling Stones "Some Girls" deluxe edition coming

    Just in time for George Lucas to further bastardize the Star Wars saga, he butchered them for DVD, then even worse on Blu-Ray :D

    Rolling Stones "Some Girls" deluxe edition coming

    Well DVD did have a good decade or so to shine before Blu came along (I got a DVD player in 1999, got a Blu-Ray player last year when it finally came down below $100). I do see a major difference on HDTV, and I have no intentions on ever going back to DVD except for niche titles (tv shows...

    Rolling Stones "Some Girls" deluxe edition coming

    I actually picked it up for $2.99 with the original unaltered cover not too long ago. I love the idea of these sets, but I do not like the $$$$ that they want for them. Something like $50-75 IMO is fairly reasonable, but once we get over $100, I think its corporate greed at its worst...
