- "Most people" buying CDs don't care about audio quality. What's your point?
- "Most people" don't know what audio quality is. :) I didn't advocate
- replacing all cassettes with metal ones - just noting that AFAIK there
- are *no* pre-recorded metal tapes anywhere.

- Is this true? Not counting Walkmans for example.
-
- > d) Where would you put the "label" ??
-
- Couldn't a very small label be put around the center hole sort of like
- LP's? Some CD's go a little nuts on the label issue, with the whole
- cover art etc. You make some good points however.
