...is free music. (similar, of course, to the best kind of beer) happened to be at my local public library a few months ago and was trolling through the cd case while the kids were book hunting. pleasantly surprised to find a few discs that i've always wanted but never actually purchased- some u2, white stripes. also found a few soundtracks with individual songs that caught my eye.
since then, i've made a few trips back and picked up different CDs, mostly soundtracks, and have been importing tracks to my itunes catalog. i'm a big fan of cover songs (a top 5 post someday on that one), and soundtracks are a gold mine for completely random cover songs. the great thing about the library gig is that these CDs usually only have one or two worthwile songs, so it saves buying the whole disc.
i'm also a big fan of christmas music, and i've also been scooping up the library's collection of christmas discs and ripping them too. figure i'll beat the december rush this way.

sufjan stevens has a nice christmas cd, if you're looking for something different.
I love Christmas music, too, and your idea of finding it at the library is one that happens weekly at our house. (Not just for Christmas music!)
If you are interested in reading a page about Christmas music, be sure to check out the one that I have written at Christmas Music CDs ~~ It's Jingle Bell Time!. It is full of interesting information about Christmas music, past and present and I love the playlist.
I have also created a page about Elvis Presley's upcoming Christmas album and you can read all about it at Elvis Presley Christmas Duets. It features duets by many female contemporary country artists. If you enjoy Elvis' Christmas songs, you may want to request it now at the library!
