For some reason I never took the effort to read this thread, and now that I have, I'm very happy about it.
Some comments on how Tolkien's reading is not very magical I found a bit strange, because the Professor invented the language, so if anyone should know how it sounds, it would be him. I enjoyed hearing his voice very much, although I imagined it a bit differently.

Yes, for me too. I would always automatically pronounce it with the stress on the last -in.
Joy, I liked hearing your pronounciation too. I've never been interested myself in actually learning to speak Elvish, but I admire those who do and can. Respect!
