well ive come across a couple of sites on the net that may change your
mind:

be the armchair.music DJ you always wanted to be  WITHOUT dumping all your
$$$ (especially Warp) to those greedy labels </sarcasm>

or you can be ultra-elite with your...well you just gotta check it
out...if you build one and live stateside...ill drive to come see this..

i agree with brad...its just as easy to "waste" 30 minutes burning a nice
new cd...  but please be friendly to those labels...   youre stealing
their money from them and the artists (i.e. go after non release/rarity
mp3s...download SAW and see...one day your HDD will die..nonrecoverable)
