> (I still haven't been able to find a replacement for an album I ordered off mp3.com, the band up and vanished as most bands do and I lost the CD.) I feel you. There a tons of bands (and other works such as books) that aren't and likely won't ever be accessible. This grinds my gears when I read comments about how the Internet/Piracy has everything. It has everything that is mainstream enough and even then the ephemeral nature of some technology used to share it (torrent, emule, etc.) don't necessarily mean it's available years later. In the sense that torrent networks aren't for storage but for sharing. It's an error to believe piracy makes everything available.
