[silence] John Cage on iTunes

[greg davis]

i wish that itunes and others would offer options for quality.

i really dont like 128 kbps mp4 / m4a files on itunes.
i think they sound pretty lousy.
id much rather have a cd. (in fact, i just ordered the arpaviva cage  
cd and the 2 newer megadisc cage cds)

i think the proliferation of mp3s and digitally compressed music has  
compromised sound quality of music a lot.
id love to see lossless media or uncompressed audio available for  
downloading in more places.

i imagine cage wouldve been pretty excited about the internet. (maybe  
it was already in its public infancy around the time he died?)
but maybe not as excited about so much recorded music floating around  
on it.
