Roger,
You'd be welcome to stay with us if you ever make it to Australia. We too are keen to go to NZ - I went for 4 weeks when I was 15 (25 years ago...), but the rest of the family are yet to see it. Spectacular scenery.
I don't download any music off the web. I do get frustrated by the limited availability of good music and movies. I live in a relatively small rural area. The closest cinema complex (4 theatres) is 50 km away, but tends to show very mainstream movies, usually at unsuitable times e.g. starting at 8.30-9.00 p.m. By the time the movie goes for a couple of hours and you add the half hour drive home, it's nearing midnight.
If I didn't listen to JJJ radio, I'd never be exposed to any new music, so I'm thankful for that.
