Tiger1962 The sound quality is pretty good in my experience. Not as great as a normal mp3 you'd like from Amazon or from a CD, even, but pretty good, once you find your way around. Patrick

Well, I asked this many months ago and there wasn't much response, but the service has now grown a lot in popularity, so I thought I'd ask again. Is anyone else here on Twitter?

Yeah, Dolphins are eliminated. Oh well. It was a great season. Can't complain.

I download music and regularly buy CDs. I just like owning CDs. I like the booklet, the artwork, etc. Beyond that, I use iTunes and Amazon MP3. I tend to use iTunes if they have an exclusive or if it is only available on iTunes. If not that, I'll use Amazon MP3. But, if it is available on CD and there is no difference between the CD and digital releases, I'll get the CD. Even when I download music, I back it up onto CD, as well, just in case. Music is sort of a hobby for me. I buy/have bought tons of stuff, spanning CD, vinyl, cassette and digital. I'm a collector of music released by Bad Boy Entertainment, so I'm always on the look out for stuff. I even have a USB turntable so that I can put my vinyl records on my MP3 player and computer. Just something I enjoy. Patrick

Ok, I'll take: Falcons Chargers Dolphins Eagles (Posted a little late, but the Chargers were my pick).

Thanks for all of the replies!

Nice posts, joesteph and Alex.

I actually saw an old trailer for the original Pelham movie and I thought it looked interesting. Would like to see it one day.

Shame.

I was wondering when someone would mention that one.

Why? Just curious as I'm a lifelong Dolphins fan. Patrick

Yeah, I enjoyed both. We actually stayed at The Plaza in New York once, in large part to it being in the movie.

Do you have any resolutions for the new year?

I loved the Home Alone movies when I was younger, as well.
