Quit your bitching JBJ! Instead of wearing dirty, threadbare headphones in order to "get lost" in music chosen solely on the basis of van-transposed cover art, now I can decide that I want an album from an obscure Norwegian band with 27 fans and I can download it to my phone from anywhere on earth--and I'll pay half the price of a vinyl.

Don't get me wrong, I love record shops. But I love iTunes and AmazonMP3 too. And while changes to the music industry have hurt a lot of good people, Jon Bon Jovi is not one of them.

That's what "kids these days" refered to as the problem, which we handily solved, thank you.
