Me too. My favorite band has 3 albums that aren't in print any more, and which aren't available anywhere. Like, you can't even get the CD's from Amazon. I've ripped them and put them in my library.

But the freedom of finding NEW stuff, when you have access to (just about) EVERYTHING... THAT has been the real eye-opener for me. I've discovered a lot of acts that I would never have otherwise heard of.
