good on the russians...just shows the profit of the companies on this side of the fence. I have always thought that music is well over rated..you buy it on vinyl, cassette, 8 track mini disc cd, mp3 and it costs you every time for the same thing. \I think its time us punters fought back and that music should be a bit more accessible esp from the big companies anyway I know that a lot of folk might disagree but I feel that someone somewhere is making a cart load of dosh and it aint often the musicians,,,,
