    I hope their domain database is more secure than their creditcard database

    Since CDNOW went away and was absorbed by "the collective". They took one of the best sites for music I could find and turned it into a useless pile of dung. I did a search for a song I wanted and ended up getting a page trying to sell me a porceline figurine.

    Fuck Amazon.com

    It is good that he might be a troll. I hope that he is one. That would make his insightful moderation all the more accurate. Trolls uber alles!

    Mod trolls up! Mod flamers up! Mod off-topic wankers up!
