Ever
since MP3`s came around the sales of Compact Disc records has been
declining at an alarming rate. More and more people prefer to just
download the MP3 of their favorite sound track instead of buying
a CD. So, why wouldn't the folks high up in the music industry be
angered?. .After all, I can't remember the last time I spent 20
bucks buying a CD..But now they've turned their attention towards
the software providers (mp3.com and napster) and taken them to court….
(*sigh*) ……These battles are likely to go on for a while, but we
on the other hand can go on listening to 'free' music!!!

300,Rio500 & Rio 600) It comes in a handy, lightweight, compact
