I know the feeling Tom. I am looking through the new issue of Ice CD
Magazine and my pulse is racing fast! Lol! Is there a support group for
people like
us? I mean it *is* an addiction. Do you know how many times friends had
kiddingly said to me "When are you gonna grow up and get a real life"? The
funny
thing is that I am absolutely drowning in a sea of materialism yet they
(cd/dvds/books etc) don't even seem like material objects to me. Your
thoughts?

Tom then replies to Mr Barone:
I have this same problem. I have over 2000 CDs. I guess I consider them
ART not material objects. Some of them are my babies. I notice that the
people who say things like "grow up" or "get a life" don't hold music as
reverently as I do. And I know people that commercial radio, satisfies
their complete appetite for music. This just amazes me because I am so
totally outside of that realm of thinking personally.
Ice magazine makes me totally wet.
Regards, Tom
