Who believes HF will move ads back to the right side?
Will it even run over Edge on an iPhone/iTouch?

Of course, that might explain why most things are sold by the time I see the ad.

I don't have anything specific, but for the only slightly more esoteric stuff, I tend towards CD-Wow. Unfortunately, you just missed Borders' 40% off sale.

Power cable, DAC or AMP first?

Shorter song suites
Yeah, I know, I know, it comes up all the time. A couple more from me: Steve Hackett, from Spectral Mornings -- "Lost Time in Cordoba"/"Tigermoth" Eric Johnson, from Tones -- "Trail of Tears"/"Bristol Shore" Genesis has done this rather wonderfully a couple of times now. Two examples: "Unquiet Slumbers for the Sleepers..."/"...In that Quiet Earth"/"Afterglow" from Wind & Wuthering & "Duke's Travels"/"Duke's End" from Duke ...come to mind.

Krell SACD Standard / Marantz SA-11S1
I was actually thinking of getting a PS3. How is this an issue? Do the PS3's run hot?

Low frequency oscillators? Lyte Funky Ones? Legal Financial Obligations? Low Flying Objects (I.E. that was your way of saying people throw things at you)?

That's assuming the radioactive squid are yours to sell. What if you dropped it in a friend's vat?

Shorter song suites
No, instrumental pieces, songs with vocals, or a mix of the two will all qualify. Yeah, good call on that one -- that's a perfect example of the sort of thing I'm talking about. You know, every time this album comes up, I think to myself -- do I have that? Have I heard it? Recently? After this, I'm pretty sure I haven't. Ever. Need to fix that forthwith. Also not familiar with Rancid.

Shorter song suites
Alright, I'm thinking suites of songs that are shorter than an album side. Some that I particularly enjoy are: Robert Palmer, Sneakin Sally through the Alley, beginning of side 1 -- "Sailing Shoes"/"Hey Julia"/"Sneakin' Sally through the Alley" Rupert Hine, The Wildest Wish to Fly (US version), end of side 1 -- "I Hang on to My Vertigo"/"Firefly in the Night"/"A Golden Age" Planet P Project, Pink World, end of side 3 -- "Behind the Barrier (Pt. 2)"/"March of the Artemites"/"This Perfect Place (Pt. 2)" -- all of side three is dang near perfect, but it comes to such a wonderful crescendo with the March of the Artemites suite. This all came about because I saw a song that I couldn't think of hearing without hearing the song that immediately follows it. If I had to encode this in MP3 format, I'd wrap it up all as one file. Do you have any that you'd like to mention? Single song suggestions and side-long submissions will be immediately disqualified, pointed to and laughed at.

Buffy and Angel and other Whedon stuff
My Angel/Buffy DVD collection used to be half full (well, 7/12 full), but now it's full-full. I also have the low-profile version.

That's like saying a full-glass is half-full.

.49 half, or .51 half? 'cause you see, to us? It comes across more like .99 half.

I have no idea why I find the following so funny, but I do: In Australia, what do they call a boomerang that doesn't come back?

Wait, did you just try and say that Charmed was better than Buffy? Jesus Christ, do you drink sugar water, too?

Well, I thought he did, I could be wrong about that. Why don't you just post to that thread and ask, 'alright guys, who bought this? I demand answers now!'

Yeah, can you imagine trying to find a specific post in 'slow forum' or 'what are you listening to now?'?
