My name is David and I am a CD-aholic....

Today I discovered a new way to buy CDs. I go to e-bay, search for “CDs” and up they come, many with less than 1 minute to go till the end of the acuction. I browse the first ten minutes or so and bid for anything that takes my fancy.

You can even choose a category of CDs to browse – it’s just like being in a big CD shop. I am an inveterate impulse buyer – very seldom aware of anything I actually want.

Tonight I bought a CD by Iain Ballamy, original sax player in Bill Bruford’s Earthworks, the latest solo album from Neal Morse, ex-lead singer of nu-prog band Spock’s Beard. And I also managed to win the auction for a copy of Medeski Martin & Wood’s first album.
