Well even iTunes and stuff isn't my speed.
If I'm going to pay, I want the album in my hands, I don't want files that I can lose in a heartbeat.

Like mojo, to some extent it irks me when 'music fans' don't spend a single cent on any of their music.

That being said, I do engage in a lot of, let's say, non-legitimate downloading that I don't necessarily pay for. However, I make myself feel better about this by the fact that I go to A LOT of concerts and see a lot of artists live. If I like an artist, no doubt I will make an effort to see them live when they come to my city. I also do spend a lot of money on buying music legitimately, whether it be in hard copy or in digital format.
The thing is I can stillt ransfer the music to my computer.
Alot of people use this example, about it getting scratched and everything, but it's not going to get scratched after I rip it to my computer.
