One of the main reasons for wanting to get a nice stereo system is the wide availability of music through Kazaa and 9.95/ mo music listening online.

How does digital music sound through a stereo system. I know that lots of Kazaa stuff is of lower quality sometimes.

I have a DVD burner on my laptop. How can I route that through my reciever to record TV shows?

How much money should one expect to spend on cables for a 5 channel system with TV, receiever, DVD (Component video) and laptop computer?

Thanks a million. Please refer to my newbie has questions post. It has a lot more questions. Thanks again.
