Unfortunately, I had nothing to contribute as to your bearing and youthful indiscretions. Geek Adventure #3243209: Regarding CD tracks as a demand driver for storage. Not likely. I just downloaded the new Jukebox from Real to rip my new Star Wars CD. It's a slick package. Alas, it can only rip CDs up to a 96Kbit rate, not the standard 112 or 128Kbit that's usually considered "CD quality". So I retreated to my usual tools, Windac and a more heavyweight mp3 encoder. In any case, it took hours to rip and encode the darn thing. On another note, looks like Quantum tried to pass through a price increase in distribution last week. Nobody bit, and they returned the pricing to normal. According to tit for tat theory, the next move is to unleash a price war as punishment.
