1. The Verve -- Forth=Spine-tingling.
2. The Troubadors -- Same=Classic English feel good tunes
3. Travis -- Ode to J. Smith=Same old but not bad
4. The Streets -- Everything is Borrowed= A real let down, hope it grows on me

Um, big on anthems, sort of cross between The Clash in Mick Jones ballad mode, JAMC and Simple Minds I'd say. Which doesn't really describe them at all. Or maybe it does. The Thinking Man's Proclaimers perhaps? Bah! Give up! Go to youtube and play the video for 'Geraldine' I'd say, that'd give you a decent idea.

Edit: In fact here IS aforesaid video, at no extra charge

The Fantastic Expedition of Dillard and Clark, one of the early country rock albums from the late 60's. featuring Gene Clark, Doug Dillard, Bernie Leadon, Chris Hillman and Sneaky Pete Kleinow. Doubt many on here are gonna rush out and buy it though

I buy both but mainly actual cds. I get excited and have a hot flush when I can see them all neatly stacked on the cd shelf IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER (surnames first) and CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER for albums by the same artist.
I occasionally line cds up by solo artists next to the bands they left for a bit of variety

I find it particularly annoying though when I buy a cd and can't copy it to my itunes and end up having to buy both formats
