Ok, here's my 2 cents.

If you've never heard a band and are curious about them....download it just to see if you like it. I always download atleast 2-3 songs by the same band just to make sure. But if I like it at all, then I buy the album. But I agree with some of you. Buying an album for 1 song isnt worth it. But you have to understand that even on the "**** tracks"...there's still effort put into them. There may not be that much effort, or you may feel like there could have been more put into it, but there's still some amount of effort. And you have to respect them atleast trying to make it work. The bottom line is....as stated by several others before me, if you like a band, support them. Because if you don't, then the label will most likely drop them because they're not selling enough records and then you'll be forced to get online and bitch and whine and complain about it. Saying "Damn, I really liked that band, it sucks that they're not around anymore." Why would you want to kill something that you love? Why do bands strive for a record deal so much if they could make more money off of just touring and merchandise sales? The more support they get from you, the more support they get from their labels.
