Napster has asked people to go out this weekend and buy something that you’ve downloaded from them to show that Napster is actually GOOD for the record industry. I bought “Sex Packets” by Digital Underground. Listening to it now. Glad I got it! Weird! (Second choice was the first Rutles album, which I have on vinyl and as a result, hardly listen to. However, I just bought the newest Rutles album and I only liked about half the songs on the first one, so…Maybe next time.) 😉 ---

I give up. The subject is SUPPOSED to be "What’d you get for the “Buy"cott?” What’s the trick to using quotes in a title? ---
