You might be surprised how widespread the "tape" (anachronistic now,
I guess) trading community is now. Dimeadozen.org, for example, has
its membership capped at 100,000. Dime and other bit torrent sites
trade exclusively in lossless formats, and it's not just for Dead-
heads. Thousands of artists are represented. Whether all of it is
obsessive or not, I can't really say.
