I like CDs too, some of them come with great artwork and tracks that would never reach the radio/internet but are the best on the album. Most of the time the only CDs I find that have these bonuses are those that are by the artists that I enjoy over and above the norm. In other words, I would have bought the latest CD by 'soandso' because having bought their music before, I know that I'll enjoy the whole thing. Where a service like the one Tipsy mentioned would come in handy would be for those songs you hear on the radio and want as part of your music library but you don't want to buy the whole CD for the one or two songs you liked. In my teen years when I had too much money and not enough good sense I bought numerous CDs of bands that had good singles and found that the rest of their music was either not to my taste or just total crap. This way, for a limited payout I'd get the music I want and not have paid for the rest of the crap.
