When downloadable music first came out, I adopted the concept right away. The fact that you can open iTunes and download an album in an hour (I had dial-up Internet at the time) was amazing! I’ve been a loyal customer of iTunes for years now with a collection of thousands of songs I have purchased or ripped from CDs.
