I'll never forget the day when my wife and I were discussing Classical Music in the forums, and some kid asked what Beethoven's 2nd symphony was like since all he ever heard was the 5th, 6th and 9th. All I had to do was link him to an awesome Lossless quality of it. And he discovered Beethoven all over again. *sigh* That's the same as the genius feature in iTunes right? So what if it suggested an American Gospel CD after i asked for something similar to Renaissance Bardic Music. That's the same... *A moment of silent prayer*

I got an invite from a kind soul at a radiohead fan site. The community was great. I spent a lot of time on the forums and learned a lot about the bands and kinds of music I was listening to. I'm glad demonoid is back, but it can't touch what oink was. I'd be curious to see how waffles and/or what.cd look like, but have not been able to score an invite as of yet.
