Who still buys CDs?

[Mystic]

You can't really get VG Music from CD's now can you?







Well, not in the states by normal means.

I know places.

[OmegaPapyrus]

I will buy CDs/records if I want it as a collectors thing, but I will usually just get my music offline.

[Fell]

Me. Don't have an MP3 player. :-\

[Kingmush]

I only buy the CDs of my favorite bands. I don't go out and buy a CD of an artist who I only like one song from...I'll use torrents for that or something.

[Redpaige13]

Considering the fact that I still use a Personal CD Player, I still buy a lot of CDs.

I had recently bought like...4 new CDs, and my friend intercourse ing stole them from me when he moved out of town!! D:

[Zovistograt]

I only buy music if I seriously like the artist.  I usually do not want all the songs on an album, so why pay for them?  I think it's bad to distribute files, which is why I don't do it a lot, but downloading is just taking advantage of other ppl's doings.  It's their fault that they put it on the Interwebz, not mine.

And even if you don't think that way, it's not really ripping off the artists because the artists don't make nearly as much from the CD sales as the record companies do.  Artists make their money from live shows and other stuff like that.  Buying CD's really just strengthens the recording industry, which could become a problem for the enjoyment of music in the long run.  However, there are some artists (like Indie or unsigned labels) that really do need CD sales to make any money and I support them for that.  I will only buy a CD from a big label, though, purely as an act of devotion to a favorite band or artist.  I also love to have CD's if I love the artist; it gives you something material to hold and hug and such.  But I don't do it often.

I still buy Cd's because they sound a bit better than iTunes.

[B9M]

I do, but I don't get them that often.

[Wappa]

Yeah, I still get CD's. Mostly the of groups that I like. Didn't get one for Christmas though :O Just now realized it. :P

You hardly get profit from CDs. Peopel download, they go to concert, that is where money comes from.

but if no one buys CDs, and if u do play a concert, and ppl just download CD recording of concert, you're screwed...not my main point anyway

[farf]

[Tahrann]

I allways buy CDs

[Jono2]

I don't download music (even though it's not against the law here), and my dad won't let me buy songs off of itunes, so yeah, I have to use CDs.

plus, a hard copy is always good to have around.
