I last used tables for design in the first half of 2004. While I was at AMG, I was forced into using tables for the majority of pages because of the IE-centric view the company had at the time. After lots of pushing on the subject, I finally managed to talk them into letting me convert pages to valid xhtml as a cost cutting move. It wasn't long after that, however, I was told to pack my bags. That's why the front page and static pages are table free, but things like the artist and album pages are still nested table hell.

I'm the only web guy for my company and our mailing list has some 300,000 members to it. Every time management askes me to send out another html email, I get a flood of complaints about how something didn't work in their client. If this were a page on our site, I'd totally understand the complaints, but when you're dealing with just thousands and thousands of different clients, there's not way you're going to get everyone perfectly. So I try to ignore these people, but management expects me to fix the internet. So I feel your pain, brah. I know the feeling man.
