   An excellent read at the NYTimes about the devasting loss of music in a fire   
   is why I leave you this response left in a discussion forum.   
      
   Just reading that beyond excellent full length aritcle really made me realize   
   just how massive a job ASCAP has sampling the waves for each artist. The sheer   
   size is almost as if I have more time to walk around the Earth once or twice   
   in my lifetime and    
   actually accomplish that feat than I would to listen to one thousanths of a   
   sheer millions of the music that exists in any form, memory or out of a   
   instrument live and every way between.  As a musician myself, i am but one   
   unseen individual drop of water    
   gushing from Niagara Falls in an hour but I'm there.  Sure that's an   
   overstatement but I hope that gets you to thinking of exactly how precious   
   beyond spoken and written words all that music, lost forever is and how   
   vitally inseparable music is to    
   everyone ever to before and for the rest of mankind to be is.  Take the music   
   away and just consider it an outright emotional, psychological and eventually   
   physically detonated nuclear grenade from inside a persons soul and I most   
   humbly sincerely mean    
   that fully.  Maybe it's the fact that i have a new DNA dad and my best friend   
   is going through pace maker surgery but I am left with tears streaming down my   
   face.
