So? I borrow CDs regularly from the public library for three weeks at a time (renewable). For free. Even the overdue penalty is $0.15 per day. At $0.99 per day, it's cheaper to BUY the CD than rent it from MACs for three weeks. The selection at the public library is both intelligent and varied. Even here in Brampton, I never see the same titles twice, and they're always expanding. Certainly Toronto must have an even bigger selection. Your tax dollars buy those library CDs. Why not use them? -- _______ The great mystery revealed: | Evan Leibovitch, SA, System Telly 1st - Egg: 2 min 41 sec | Located in beautiful Brampton, Ontario 2nd - Chicken: 2 min 49 sec | evan@telly.UUCP -or- utzoo!telly!evan
