Can I conclude the CD is growing on those of us list members who had the priviledge to listen to it so far?

We start relationships with certain types of people and hope it is growing on us.

We move into a house in our favourite area and hope living in this house will grow on us.

We buy a car of a certain brand even if it does not feel right from the start - hoping the drive will grow on us.

We buy clothing of our favourite brand in the trust it will soon feel right on our skin.

And we buy music in this trust the songs will grow on us.

DON'T WE?

Where are the proud but disappointed Sting fans that have decided NOT to buy this album?

Let's not forget about the future and get on with the thought that this album would have been made available on emusic right away. You could purchase each song separately for 99 cents a piece - which ones would lead the download list??

Would you download a second track after being disappointed about the first one? With single-track download, the album character disappears - where is the chance for a musician to tell a story? How can then "a list of tracks" grow on us?

Thinking of this, I want to forget about that future, get on with the present and hope that albums will always remain being available as a whole "book".

Just another 2 cents I could not hold back.
