| So, What is the Verdict on the Beatles Box Sets? Wireless, I hope that making posts like yours give you great enjoyment because you seem to be missing the point of listening to music.

| Divorcing..Splitting the cd collection.. You probably have some ripping and burning softwear on your computer, if you have one. Let us know if you do.My first bit of advice is to buy quality cd-rs (Taiyo Yuden - made in Japan [the Japan part is important] or MAM-A [Mitsui]). You can buy ... | |
