      if i have the opportunity to download a album b4 it's out in the store, i do it. That's the only way to get a proper listening, especially Progressive House Albums or Mixed CD's. And if the album is great or a must have like Balance006 or Sasha's Involver i definite buy it. We have to support the artist, otherwise it could be the last thing we heard of him.

      :wink:

              Oh also if I couldn't download some of the stuff I wouldn't have such a robust liking for music I'm always exploring new sounds and such Like middle eastern Operas etc I like to expand my mind with differnt flavors of music

Its not like a treat all my album buying like this but for the ones I'm not sure of I will. It's a great tool for that, if only more music company would use it as such, it would be great. I not saying they should allow to download music like a leech, but if would do more streaming I think find that we would buy more.
                Yup i agree. I download albums to check them out see if i like them. If i do, i buy them. I got close 1000 cds so im not really stealing. Im just making sure its worth it since the record stores charge a lot for one album.

                    No shit. That was in the UK?

                    How did that come about, if you don't mind me asking?

                      I download most music, but I will buy the cd's that I like. If I don't, delete.

                        I dont mind downloading live sets but when it comes to artists albums, im more than happy to pay for them, its only cheap skate bastards that download everything.

                          Buying albums...or vinyl..or whatever you wanna call it

                          I dl a lot of livesets, but I'd rather spin vinyl. You can see the grooves which helps a lot. With all the good music out there now, not to mention the fact that I work and go to school, I wouldn't have time to dl singles and memorize all the tracks. Besides, the producers of the "soundtrack of our lives" deserve compensation....that's the most important thing...
