I guess i`m not the only one who has paid for the same recording many times over.
I`ve got Beatles songs in vinyl, tape,cd, & now mp3, not bad for the hard done by record companies.

Gidday.
Yeah finished my cajon cost $40 to make, timber, screws & paint. another $10 when i add a snare.
this is great fun thinking of adding a pedal for the kick drum so i can play along with guitar.
On u tube some amazing players, also lot of beginners having a ball.

gidday.
I see the recording industry is complaining again about free downloaded music,they say they are being ripped off.
There are many artists from the 50`s & 60`s that would say the same happened to them(getting ripped off by the record co`s )
funny, what comes round go`s round
