    I dunno...First I think it's rather elitist to expect one to find this
    music only on import vinyl (But I suppose I can skip the buying altogether
    and just go Napster, can't I?!?). The genre already has a name, or at least
    names (thank you again Mr. Peterson). I do think comps will be inevitable.

    So it'll get watered down. So what. That only means the other end of the
    spectrum will develop into more exciting, challenging things. It's Ying and
    Yang. I think that's happened to every genre of music.

    But I agree with the person who said it won't appeal to the kiddies, that's
    fine as long as it doesn't have to mean one has to have a higher income to
    acquire this stuff.
