Yeah I agree - had typed a sentence about "maybe this will change" but deleted it by mistake. I think most kidz - not just those on the bus but anyone student age and under, now - basically uses myspazz and youtube and so on by default, regardless of how much they care about music, these habits will obviously stick into adulthood.

I guess it's only older people like myself who read the Guardian's Friday review section and go, oh I should get that Amerie album then ;) It's really good, thx.

Ah thanks! It is always reassuring to find that people read, let alone act on, one's reviews...

I'm going to act on it too. Well, on the ILX thread more specifically.
