String Quartets On the Web?

rueger writes "Lots of people love iTunes. I'm partial to emusic.com. Ubuntu comes pre-equipped for Jamendo and Magnatune. These are great for those of us hunting popular music — but where do lovers of classical music go to find new artists and albums, download music, and generally keep informed, up to date, and satisfied? As my girlfriend put it, 'I used to go to the big classical record stores downtown, but they're gone.' Where do people go to find the newest Ligeti String Quartet recording?"

      I think this whole question is a troll. He says he has a girlfriend and uses Ubuntu. One is a lie. Geeks don't have girlfriends. :p

      No, you're thinking of Mac users. Linux users don't get laid.

    >> mp3 is simply not good enough for Classical. If you must buy digital, go for 320 kbps or lame alt-preset-extreme equivalent.

    As a giant Classical snob and mp3 is simply not good enough for Classical are redondant sentences.

  4. The Emporium! by SirLoadALot · · Score: 0, Troll

    Lovers of classical music usually take their horseless carriage to a convenient local musical emporium. A variety of cylinders are available for the various gramophones on the market. Please note that one does not actually purchase the cylinder -- one instead purchases the right to play the cylinder under certain circumstances, as laid out in the license agreement that accompanies it.

    When I heard the news, I almost had an orgasim. Seriously, when I heard musical theater was involved, my cock got hard, and soon a throbbing feeling came about, and then an upwelling of pleasure, and then I exploaded in a creamy shower of sticky goodness.

    My black lab licked it all up off the floor, and then cleaned my sack.

    Nice dog.
