Exactly, I have over 600 cd's I have been buying since the early 90's. Grew up working in the home and car audio industry with a few thousand vested in the home and car, I need the best I can get.
As far as artist support, I have no problem buying cd's from my favorite artists. When that new Scarface drop, best believe I will be in Best Buy or Record Den buying the disc.

You know what. You're absolutely right. People will justify it in many ways. but you are just looking out for you. I appreciate that
The ultimate backwards hustle: Buying some shyt that's readily available for free. I understand the non internet savvy people purchasing music, but all you computer literate dudes wasting money on music is astonishing
It's like dudes didn't get the memo, all this shyt is free. This is coming from a dude who probably spent thousands on CD's before file sharing popped off. I used to be in music store faithfully on Tuesday's copping all kind of shyt, so I made my contribution to the record industry. Even if I didn't, fukk em, because if I could have been downloading back then, I would have.
nikkas will be on some "I'm gonna download it, and if I like it, I'm gonna cop to support"
How the fukk you gonna buy some shyt you already got
Record labels got y'all fools buying DIGITAL albums for $14.99, the same price they was when they had manufacturing, shipping, and other cost
nikkas preordering digital albums like they gonna sell out
Back in the day, with bootlegs, the excuse used to be sound quality, but nikkas can't use that excuse anymore.
Do y'all nikkas actually feel good about yourselves after purchasing an album? These artist gonna eat regardless. I'm sure nikkas will come in here trying to justify the act of purchasing music in 2015, but the fact of the matter is, the shyt is unjustifiable.
I look at it like voting. Nobody ever won shyt on one vote. Yet if I tell people I don't vote, they get all in their feelings.
B-b-but if everyone thought like you then........
fukk what everyone else is doing. I'm not here to do things so 100000000 other people will do it too. I'm doing ME
If I got 20k in the bank. And I sign in on the Coli and see the new Kendrick. I'm downloading it. Straight up. He don't get MY 99 cents and the label doesn't get the other $9. Do you think they'd be that much better off with an extra 9.99
No. I download everything from music to movies with no care in the world about it. fukk it.
You just contradicted your own staementnot when I can get it for free

no I didn't I said I don't pay for things I can get for free. So when I have the opportunity to get free food then clearly I am not going to pay for it.You just contradicted your own staement
Ex: You're at a cookout they didn't ask you to bring anything but yourself and you eat. You aren't gonna hand them some money for the food you got now would u?
So why would I pay for music that's right at my finger tips for free? I used to buy music all the time but back then you had to. Now you don't.
dude you tried so hard to prove your point.You just contradicted your own staement
but you reaching
I used to make money off these nikkas back the napster days by burning CD and selling them.
it befuddles my mind to think some of these dude still aint on that filesharing movement. its been like 15 years.
