• The thing that I've always been slightly frustrated with, was that the idea of a CD is kind of confined to a material possession that you can put on a shelf. And the idea of music, for me, is always about both the communication and the sharing of content. And so the interactive part is missing.

• I am a Prince," he replied, being rather dense. "It is the function of a Prince—value A—to kill monsters—value B—for the purpose of establishing order—value C—and maintaining a steady supply of maidens—value D.

It is all very complicated, and if you have a chart handy I can graph it for you.

The crackle and pop of the stylus on a record player as you wait for the music to begin creates an anticipation that CDs simply can't provide.
