CD buying addiction continues...

[clintlove]

Amazon.com has kicked the shit out of me. It's so easy to buy the used cd's and it's really cheap...most of the time. I just bought 5 of Bukem's Progression Session series (two of which are out of print) and Craig Richards - Fabric 01 for under $88 including shipping. Worth it to me. Currently in my cart...

Lost in Time - Sandra Collins
Foundations Granite - Bedrock Records ($0.84!)
Fabric Live 22 - Scratch Perverts
Transport 4 - Max Graham
This is Everybody! On Tour - Sander Kleinenberg & Lee Burridge
Renaissance: The Master Series - Hernan Cattaneo
Renaissance: The Master Series, Vol. 2 - Hernán Cattáneo
Northern Exposure II: West Coast - Sasha & John Digweed
Northern Exposure II: East Coast - Sasha & John Digweed
Northern Exposure 1 - Sasha & John Digweed
Northern Exposure III: Expeditions - Sasha & John Digweed
Global Underground Ibiza - Sasha
Global Underground: San Francisco - Sasha
Global Underground Hong Kong - John Digweed
Global Underground Buenos Aires - Dave Seaman
Global Underground Melbourne - Dave Seaman
Global Underground Cape Town - Dave Seaman
Global Underground Nubreed - Satoshi Tomiie
Airdrawndagger - Sasha
Bedrock - John Digweed
MMII - John Digweed

A subtotal of $227. That's about $10 a cd and most are double disc. In many cases these cd's are brand new and never been opened.

A while back, I had a cd case of 250 or so stolen.

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

that explains the addiction.... instead od spending $227 on all that, spend another $23 and get an Ipod

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

great list of cd's there, and for the real cd's that's a bargin. of course i have almost all of those on mp3. but there is nothing like having the real thing with the books and all.

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

this is an affliction that I don't suffer from, I'm hooked on [ms]

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

Already have an Ipod and all of these on mp3. Collecting the real cd's has been a hobby for more than a decade. Somebody's got to feed all these artist and labels.

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

Damn, that is one hell of a list. But it is also a lot of fun to just splurge on buying a bunch of cds.

How is the second cd? I love the first and have had it since it came out way back when. Just wondering if the new version is worth picking up for the added tracks.

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

I'm the same way. Most of the stuff I've purchased has been through Caiman.com.

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

I purshase far more than most and i spent alot more on aqquiring than most too . Music collecting sets me back around £180 a month . which includes buying in shops, buying online, subscribing to sites and also my broadband connection + the expendicture of buying storage to keep it in . so i tend not to feel too ashamed about collecting music illegaly because i spend far more than ure average Joe . To be honnest it pisses me off when i hear about ppl who buy two albums a month say they think these ppl who download music are destroying the industry and deserve all they get .. We tend to spend alot more supporting an industry we love . Than these tight pocketed fuckwads ever will ..


i could go on but i won't

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

i buy a LOT of cds, not $200 at a time by any means, but probably 2 or 3 a week pretty consistently throughout a year.

Re: CD buying addiction continues...

I too like to buy cds, the rates at which I buy cds changes over the years depending on how much I make at my current job. In order to soften the blow to my wallet I have considered working at a music store just so I can get music at discount prices. With over 1000 cds and far more on mp3, the only problem is deciding on is if I should get into the SACD/DVD-A formats. My end goal is to have a catalog of music larger then virgin/tower records. This is the only addiction I have and I shall never quit :P Music is the soundtrack of my life.
