Can I get your dad's e-mail address?

I just bought Justice's debut album (COOL CD ART) and it disappointed me that it was the last one there tucked away behind some shit band. The CD section keeps shrinking.

I do like the opportunity when I find a diamond in the rough, an album I hadn't heard before. It's how I found Morphine.

i still buy cds, the las one i bought was a Devo compilation

I buy Cd's still because I like to physically own things and hear them out of my kick-ass stereo system.

oops

I concur. I also like to own the actual cd because it looks better in my collection as well. I usually buy the cds of any artist I give a shit about.

I like buying CDs because I have this compulsion to hoard things.

I still buy, not very often though. There's a difference between having the music and having the actual record. I like having a physical collection that you can point out and say, "That's what I spent my food money on."

i also buy vinyl

Same for me. I've just recently started buying blank CDs to put my downloaded music on because I recently realized I had my iPod for almost 2 years and it might just stop working soon.
Ruckus downloads are useless if you have an iPod like I do. Unless you want to look for a shady program to break their licenses.

I haven't purchased a CD in over 10 years. Regardless of liking the physical media, purchasing CDs is supporting the RIAA which has ruined countless of people's lives (financially at least). Unless of course you purchase CDs from independent artists or labels or the few major artists who take a progressive stance against the recording industry mafia (e.g., NIN, Radiohead, etc.).

I do that, too. Who was the band that let people pay whatever they wanted for their album?

Also, downloaded music's revenue goes, in part, to the RIAA as well.

NIN and Radiohead suck dick, though

Depends where you download it. ;)

Your point? These are just examples off the top of my head of artists that have spoken out against the RIAA.

Here you can see if a dick sucking mainstream artist you do like supports suing grandmothers and college students:

Haha! http://www.riaaradar.com/search.asp?...eyword=Justice

Justice is AOK! Probably 'cause they and their label are French.

I like how the Grey Album is "unknown." :rolleyes

I still buy CDs. The artwork and liner notes is an important part of the experience for me...and I like the album format - listening to songs in the order the musicians intended.

By the way, how can anyone say Radiohead suck? They can be mind-numbingly pretentious at times, but "suck"? No.

Yes, Radiohead sucks. No, you are wrong.

only college girls like radiohead

i still buy cds. sure i like owning a physical copy and the album art and liner notes, but mostly i really get off by masterbating with the cds.

Sergio Mendes' Greatest Hits was the last album I bought...over a month and a half ago. I mostly D/L now, and I'll get songs off of I-tunes when I want them.

Basically, I'll buy the cd if the album has songs that are 13 and a half minutes long, and if I know I'd listen to it somewhere besides my IPod.

OF COURSE i'm still buying (((((empty))))):orgasm cd (rs)

that's not what this thread is about and you know it you cock

I have soulseek too, but i do buy cd's if i really dig the whole album.

i just bought Priestess' album from amazon.com. fucking rocks.

Hahah I know Mikey and used to party with them in Montreal. Not a fan of their music though.

I don't buy CDs from bands that headline tours, because at that point their money is going to be coming mostly from the touring, and not the music sales.
But if there's some band no one's heard of then I'll definitely buy the CD.
