- Okay, now that we're straight on ripping, let's argue something else:
- Are we, as Amiga users, going to give in to this new IBM-weenie wave of
- converting our music to "*.mod" instead of "mod.*"??? I'm tired of
- downloading songs whose titles are about 20-30 characters and the
- filename tells me something completely incomprehensible like
- "VIRTINTE.MOD" for the song Virtual Intelligence! Is this the way things
- should be?!? =)
-
- It's time to begin a revolt! From now on, all music will have 50
- character file names! Well, okay, maybe not. :)
