Tony Cooper:
Music service? I thought Spotify was an acne medicine. Bzzzzt! I once bought a Dalmatian puppy. They're born without spots. The vet said that if I wanted to register the dog with the AKC I would have to apply Spotify® for two weeks to bring out the spots. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |

I have only one streaming music service, Sirius, and it satisfies my needs. Plus it is free because I have the full subscription in my car. I know there are other free streaming music services out there, but this is working for me, as long as they stay in business. -- PeterN |
