I agree, the yuppies (I know) are more likely to go grab some songs they
already know then log off, where the kids more likely to have a share
set up and build a large collection, trading with friends etc., enjoying
the social aspect of it. And if I was back in university, when I could
only afford one album a week (maybe), I would have downloaded like a
madman.
iTunes has yet to launch here, so there isn't much water cooler talk
about legal downloading. I love the latest update for the iPod - if any
of the pod people haven't downloaded it yet - it's got a sleep timer and
an alarm clock - both work great.
