This all hinges around a supposition of how you'll interact with digital recordings that you have paid for in the future. I have about 800 CDs in boxes under my bed now and a bit more living space in home, which I quickly filled with a new turntable and all my old vinyl. I am worried though that when my descendants all have genetically engineered super-ears, that great granddaddy's record ripped record collection is going to sound like a load of old wax cylinders!
