I agree, with Dave; also funny is that those big acts like Metallica or whatever who are started that shit REALLY Dont need ALL of their fans to buy the records. If 70% of Metal fans would decide not to buy their music it wouldnt matter, cause the guys are in a league together with Ricky martin and Britney Spears. Most buyers of their albums today (correct me if i´m wrong) are from 12 to 40 with a lesser % of Metal fans in!

Also Napster is a fantastic thing for US. THere are enough AOR/MHR Mp3s online there; you just need to find them. SO we can listen to bands which we maybe heard alot of but never would get a chance to buy (example is the WHOLE Z-records catalouge; here in Austria i couldnt manage to find even one shop who sells it. ;-((( ( )
