Jeff if this is an offer to me, thanks but no thanks. I mean no
disrespect but I just don't care. I have heard this lossy argument
for years. And yet, I find I enjoy music even more now than I did
years ago. Because an iPOD and CDs etc, offer me more freedom
to enjoy my music where and when I want.

No one said that. It is your choice. I think my point was
that whenever iPODs or mp3s are discussed on music lists,
eventaully someone feels the need to pipe up about lossy formats.
I usually hit the delete key, and I probably should have this
time. My father was a recording engineer, we had some really
nice stereo equipment around the house, but I fondly remember
my own first stereo more. It was a box unit and held together
with a wish and a prayer, but I have to tell you, my music
sounded as sweet as anything else to my ears.
I guess what I'm saying is I am happy with how I listen to
music. Agree to disagree I guess. I just know that when
a thread turns to high end tech talk, I never feel the need
to pipe in about how cool it is to have an iPOD to educate
people.
