Today's Idea A Day is taking me down memory lane.

"Replace the weaker songs or remixes that make up b-sides and bonus tracks on artist CD singles with songs by new and emerging artists that might appeal to the fanbase of the main credited artist."

I like this idea, so I know the music industry will never do it, however it also made me realize that my kids will never know "b-sides." There are no b-sides anymore, and with the shift to digital music, there never will be again. Sigh.
