What HiFi Awards 2004

Hace poco me preguntaron por la lista de estos premios y la verdad es que no recuerdo que se publicaran y comentaran en el foro.

Sé que este tipo de premios y menciones a mucha gente no le dicen nada pero personalmente me gusta curiosear estas listas y rankings. Además es una buena oportunidad para criticas y comentarios...
