Do you remember the days when people were actually willing to pay money for a Madonna album?

No, No, this isn't one of those lectures about the death of the music industry or how the future of music is new media; it's just that the last couple of Madonna albums have pretty much killed her career as anything other than an oldies act.

I mean have you heard "American Life"; I think her rapping about pilates can be traced as the exact moment she became irrelavent.
