Are You An Audiophile Or A Music Lover?


Try to imagine yourself in the following fantasy:

In your youth you foolishly make a deal with Satan whereby he immediately gives you whatever you desire (wealth, talent, fame, etc.). You in turn grant Satan the right that at some future date he can take from you something you value. Years later you're sitting in your professionally designed, acoustically perfect music room listening to a selection from your 10,000+ music collection on your $500,000+ system. Suddenly there's a knock on the door. It's his Satanic Majesty and it's payback time. You think he's going to take your soul, but surprisingly he gives you a choice. You can either keep your system, but you'll only be able to listen to a single piece of music - forever, or you can keep the 10,000+ music collection, but you can only listen to it over a sub $100 boombox - again, forever. Which would you chose?

Bonus points if you made your deal with the devil after midnight at the crossroads.

Music and boombox. I would, of course, first ask for a fiddlin' contest, which would make the scenario moot. Charlie Daniell.
I had a pretty good laugh thanks to Clueless's remark.
I too would take the music and the boom box with a modified power cord.

By the way is the 10,000+ music collection in CD format or LP. Got Milk?

I'd give him the music; cut the system down to a $490,000 system; and then replace the $10,000 of music. I could live with only a $490K system.
