Cds til I die

[MrGaryy]

I used to be committed but its just so convient to dl! I still get the occasional CD now and then and always buy Christina's CDs.

in terms of paying for music, I've bought the majority of 09 released albums I've dled this year. Taylor Swift, GaGa, Florence, Miike Snow, Polly Scattergood, Lily Allen, Lisa Mitchell, Frankmusik and Dan Black, I did skive on Little Boots and La Roux tho :P

[*mazedsalv**]

I do aswell!

[mrs-big]

[teabag.]

aha

[rquote=2589581&tid=147825&author=MassiveTruck]I buy CDs if it's an artist that is worth it because they worked on their album themselves and not some person I don't even know who worked on the music and lyrics where the artist gets like a fraction of the song writing costs

AND

if the artist is starting off, makes about 10 thousand pound a year from music.

Otherwise - No.

I will never buy a record from an artist who is record company fodder, like Beyonce, Girls Aloud, somebody from a TV "talent" show contest etc. because they get everything done for them as they have no musical knowledge whatsoever. Most of that money goes to a record company executive or some producer or writer I don't know or some random session musicians. Basically to a whole group of people who worked on a song like a production line.[/rquote]
Amen to that. Why should I buy a Britney CD if she does not even perform live? She has all the input the studio tea boy has.

I buy CD's that I consider complete artistic 'works'. Both the music, the design, and they lyrics sheet. And for artists I like.

Only new release I have bought this year thus far is Bat For Lashes ''Two Suns''.

I now and again buy CDS. I bought 3 oldish greenday albulms from play.com the other day because they were only £3 each. I might ask for a load of cds I like for christmas. It is nice to have cds to open I usually buy more dvds. I have been buying quite a few dvds lately.

[Beastie]

I don't really download. Well I did have limewire ages ago but it ended up sending viruses to my comp and then I heard if you get caught you get a £2,500 fine or something? I am sure my sister said she knew someone which that happened to? so then I just deleted limewire. I got worried.

Do any of you guys knows of free download music sites which are safe (ish)? lol please

[Beastie]

Also I like that feeling in a cd there is usually the lyrics to every song on the albulm and it is nice to look through it, sing along with it and that I know you can get lyrics from the comp but yeah an actual cd is more special.

[Shaun]

I do for Christmas - I go apeshit in HMV with albums that're 2/3 for £10 or something. But otherwise...unfortunately not. I need a new CD rack though.

Lol yeah I tend to find cds which are a tenner each and same with dvds which are like a tenner each a bit too pricey. Well I like to buy cds/dvds when they are about £3 each. Ooo yeah I like the like 3 for £10 deals and stuff!

However I really want to get the lion king on dvd but like it is quite pricy or on some sites the dvd is only region 2 and can only be played in north america or something?

does anyone know where I can get the lion king on dvd please?

[Beastie]

Is buying an albulm on I tunes similar price to buying a cd in a shop anyway?

[King Gizzard]

the beast, try play.com stuff is real cheap on there.

i love having cds

Lol thanks but I already go on play.com
Lion King 1 £21.97. I might wait until it's price drops?

It is selling for £10.49 but that is only for north american region 1 or multi region dvd players.

Not sure if I have a multi region dvd player?

[King Gizzard]

21 quid!?!? oh god

they must not produce many.

[Beastie]

[rquote=2611077&tid=147825&author=Nathan]21 quid!?!? oh god

Lol yeah I would probs buy it if it was a tenner because classic dvds like that are not being sold for just a few quid? unless I try and find it at the market/ car boot sale?

[Beastie]

neighbours on in a mo! I may be back later but might go for a walk after neighbours. Lol me saying this in a music thread! sorry..

well in fact does anyone like the neighbours theme tune??

neighbourssssss everybody needs good neighboursssss

lol aww I do love it even to this day!

[MassiveTruck]

If you want CDs then I suggest Amazon.

I buy a lot of old CDs from there when I see them for 1p on the resellers. It works out at 1.21 in total.

Bargain.

[CaraRawr]

CDs are great<33

I only really download if I want one or two particular songs by an artist but if I like most of their songs I buy the CD.

[MiuMiu]

I only buy CD's.
I don't ever download.
It just feels better to me, like I'm giving them more and showing more respect or sumthing. I don't know lol.
It's just funny old me I suppose.

[BBUK4LYFE]

I don't buy CD's.

I usually get my music off forums, but if I like an artist I'll buy a single off itunes.

At the end of the day, support the Artist that you like, because if they aren't getting paid for what they do, eventually they'll stop making music.

[Nurse57]

I still by vinyl. But then, I am old.

[supernoodles!]

I haven`t bought one for years and years but seeing as my laptops broken (Im on my bro`s atm) looks like I may be switching back to cd`s if I dont get it fixed soon.Its killing me not having my music!

Wow, faultless logic there. I like Jay-Z. I better buy his CD or he will stop making music. After all, he has only sold a few million records. Thats simply not enough.

No, it's simply not that easy. Artist sales have to be factored in. I buy CD's of bands I am a hardcore fan of and 'the little guys'. If Kanye West wants to stop making music because only two million people bought his new record, as opposed to the four million that listened, he obviously does not love music that much.
