iTunes is #1

iTunes has just passed Wal-Mart to become the #1 seller of music in the United States.  What started as a niche distribution center to fill up iPods with songs has become a full-fledged superstore that sells music, videos, even video rentals.

To those of you who still buy CD's at Best Buy or Wal-Mart, consider this.  You can buy 1 track on iTunes for 99 cents, and the entire album for $5.99 - $9.99.  This includes a digital booklet (like what you get in the CD) and can also contain music videos and extra specials.  

The CD is on life-support.

I wonder if you bought any music for Lizzy? Lizzy would enjoy the music, and she may love you even more! Also, Lizzy will stop complaining about the smoke! Also, I was wondering, is Lizzy still going to be the flower girl? I was also wondering if the dogs will hold the basket and be the ring-bearers for Lizzy so she can slap the flowers?

Phil, I thought the hash bash at UM only occurred once a year. ;-)

Actually, it occurred yesterday, on Saturday! I still love fuzzy things! I will never give up the fight for Lizzy being the flower girl!
