...who buys music legally?

I feel like everyone's using Pirate Bay or Youtube To MP3

I mean, sure, it costs money, but I support the artist, and want to show him support.

Marine Corps.
Semper Fi.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

I'm one up you... I only buy CDs.

Get off your high horse.

Of course people do.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

I'm with you OP. But I don't worry about supporting the artist much, I just do stuff legally.

Id buy my music but i dont have my own income yet.
I reeeally want to support the artists that i like.

I buy CDs. Quality is terrible if you download.

Dude What.

I don't illegally download music, but I don't buy it either.

Spotify ftw.

  • 12.17.2012 11:32 AM PDT

Love your friends, Die laughing.

I only buy Vinyls.

Everything else is from piracy.

  • 12.17.2012 11:32 AM PDT

But being serious for a change, I still buy CDs sometimes.

After reading the title I was thinking how funny it would be if no one replied to this thread!

This guy speaks the truth. My friend was fined 200 dollars because he downloaded The Avengers. Assuming he's being watched now.

Musical artists make paltry sums off of legal purchases anyway. Most of the profit goes to the corporation that published it.

Artists make the bulk of their money from touring and live appearances.

You're only really supporting record labels. Most musicians make their money from concert tours and merchandise sales.

  • 12.17.2012 11:34 AM PDT

Please do not send me group invites.

I love buying albums, whether its physical or digital. I also pay for Rdio.

I download free stuff from Bandcamp, but if there's a physical album I want, I'll buy it. I haven't done that in a year or two, though.

Country: United States.
State: Pennsylvania.
County: Warren.
I graduated from high school on June-11-2011. I'm 19 right now. I'm turning 20 in December. I like playing video games, and board games. I like reading Sci-Fi, and World War II novels, and what not.

"There is nothing better in the world than being better at a video game than someone else....oh wait"

Probably. Every song I downloaded on to my PSP and PS Vita. I downloaded from 4shared and YouTube.

No, I do it as well, considering I only listen to smaller, lesser known artists, it feels like a moral obligation.
