What I learned on Audiogon This Year

Things I learned from the forums this year:

1) In n Out Burger is the best fast food in the world, and Father's Office is the best Burger in LA (thanks BongoFury).

2) Widespread Panic and Arcade Fire are great bands.

3) All Digital is the wave of the future through downloads and analog is dead.

4) Analog is back to audio dominance and will continue to grow, digital is a trend and will die off except for convenience sake.

5) Don't ever say anything derogitory regarding certain types of gear that are defended by thier ______-mafia gangs. Especially___________________________.

6) Expensive Power cords are a still the biggest snake oil in audio.

7) Speakers are the most important place to start building a system.

8) Analog sounds better than digital.

9) Blu Ray is dead in the water, downloads for all media, video and audio is now the standard and will only continue to grow.

10) This is not a hobby, but a terrible affliction/addiction, and I need to change out some more gear.

Here is what I learned from Audiogon in 2010.

Even with a good way to search the thread archives repeat questions will still be asked and to my surprised answered with minimal venom.

When you list a classified with free shipping to CONUS that buyer will probably live in the farthest city from you across the country.

There are very knowledgeable members here who are very giving with their time to answer questions thoroughly. I've learned a lot from participating in this forum.

Even if you list something at a very fair price there is always a low-baller sending you a very low borderline insulting offer.

When you think your response will be sent for moderator approval it will post immediately to the thread and vice versa.

Thanks everyone
