Yes! This (customized song selections) was done years ago on cassettes, but the choices were only a couple hundred songs. Now, with hundreds of thousands of titles to choose from, the mass-market "album" as we have known it for the past 30 years (with 2 good songs and 8 weak "filler songs") may become a thing of the past.

I wonder if the sound quality is better than the MP3 downloads.

I wondered the same thing until I clicked a "listen" button and got a link to liquidaudio. I assume all these tunes are from the liquid catalog........ which would make them.... mp3(s)?
