I downloaded the free MP3 version of the new NIN album. A few days later, I went back and bought the complete 4-disc download -- $5. I chose the FLAC (lossless) format for the download; the music came with a 40-page PDF "book," and a bunch of computer graphics.

Clearly, the digital era creates options that didn't exist in the past, for artists and consumers alike.

I love my CDs and LPs, and I've been buying a lot of oldies lately. I hope the CD format DOES continue, because I love to go the store for the cat food and also see what music is on sale that day...

P.S. I could care less what Apple and iTunes are doing. I can't even SEE the iTunes store, because I don't meet the "minimum system requirements."
