that report actually doesnt suprise me. I used to buy online when i first got my ipod and my mum bought me credit. Its a great way to get tracks that you want from an album you wouldn't want to usually buy in full, or to get releases that aren't available in your country, but overall, i'd actually rather go digging around in my local store
I ditched my pirate mp3 collection about 2 years ago and went 100% legit. It was a hard move, but it forced me to get more innovative, which in turn has invigorated my listening.
I have a monthly subscription to emusic.com which gets me 40 tracks for $13. They don't have a lot of the larger labels, but there is loads of good stuff on there. I also follow a few daily music sites, which provides me with plenty of new sample tracks.
No I dont but cd's online but I do download them off of limewire and sometimes i ask people to burn their's for me..you know make them buy the cd and get it from them! Am I wrong for that?...lol
