R.I.P. audio CDs - the paradox

For those of you who have read my previous posting on this issue, R.I.P. audio CDs, here is the paradox. After spending several hours ripping my CDs and storing them in my basement I finally thought I was rid of them. But no! In my search for new music to my collection, I can hardly find any web shop offering music download in a lossless file format. Most shops offer MP3 or WMA. The only legal sites for downloading FLAC I can find is Metallica Live and Nine Inch Nails album Ghosts. Thumbs up!! The rest of music industry; get a grip!

So I guess I still have to go to my local record store to buy the CD, just to rip it and put it away…
