I love all music mediums from Vinyl 45's to Cassettes to CD's to CD3's (remember the 3 inch CD with the adapter to put in the CD player- those didn't last too long but longer than the boxes CD's used to come in at the record store;) and most recently to MP3's and looking forward to what's next for Audiophile's to enjoy- maybe 7.1 surround will catch on!...
