That's indeed a problem I also encounter - buy a cd but have no cd player! How incredible. Its amazing how times have changed! It seems just a short while ago that a CD player was the hottest and most popular thing in town.
Nice shot of the busker. Next time you are in Vancouver give me a heads up and maybe we could meet for coffee and talk photography. It would be nice to meet a fellow 365er.
Wonderful portrait photograph - very very neat.
