The Idiocy of Purchasing Music

[crush_sumpin]

mufukkaz on here kill me: a mufukka posts a forum giving his opinion & swearing his opinion is law, trashing the opposing side.. just so mufukkaz can argue their own personal opinions. I don't know when the last time someone really brought something to the table to build off of..and I admit, i have jumped in with my 2 cents, but i don't trash anyone else's.

people don't read to try and understand they read so they can respond

incidentally, I buy vinyl , I buy digital files & I download for free. not that I owe any mufukka my reasoning on here tho.. I do what I want.

Break it down for me

The novelty of new music is beautiful, when you can vibe with a track, and it touches your brain on all levels...you play it and it somehow finds a way to speak to you like nothing else. We all have that song, however it stops being novel when everyone can play it whenever they want, music is indeed for the masses and while you still might have the novel feeling about it, a small piece of you knows its being tarnished by people playing it constantly.

To put it simply, I don't pay for p*ssy or water, both are abundant and free, only a madman would pay for something so readily available....or a man who has no other skill of his own (when it comes to women).

But music isn't free it is costly to produce in time and money. It's the access to it that is. And you pay for both p*ssy and water as well. But let's not stop logic from intervening in this stupid discussion.

There is a false premise here.. refusing to purchase something and having access to it otherwise does not make it free, because you opted not to pay

How can you be a fan of something you don't value?

Yes, it does cost money to produce and yes there is time and effort put into it, however I have the option of hearing it for free via someone I know who might have purchased it, or Youtube. I don't pay for p*ssy, if you mean in the metaphoric sense of "payment" then, no, my time is valuable so I don't pay for it, or to put it simpler, I don't pay money for it, figuratively speaking you can say I do, via time, effort, and or whatever strawman you want to put in there, but ultimately the point is monetary, so no, I don't pay for either water or ladies.

Secondly, I'm not anyone's fan, seeing as I don't get fanatical about it, I am more of a supporter, but having money doesn't mean you should have to spend money. Value my friend, is subjective, I decide what something is worth, not a company or a music producer, I'm the person in control of my money, therefor where I put my value is completely up to me.

I get it, guys like you want to stand up for something that you deem needs to be represented, but the truth is, we live in a world wherein these artists are still getting paid(if they're smart) millions even with the piracy, yet demand we pay more. Nah, no thank you.

 

[JetFueledThoughts]

What I noticed is the same guys who say you're an idiot for buying music,






be the SAME damn ones who love running into threads talking about how so and so flopped first week

 

[The Fire]

You said a whole lot of nothing there, good job, next time actually form a cohesive sentence, with structure, so that I can understand what you happen to be adding with the conversation. Or just move on, you're triggered by paragraphs....cool, I guess? C00n.

Ask the people that go through it. Even on this very website you have people who enthusiastically campaign against a lot of things (cable, living on your own, ect) but have no problem paying for Internet, hyping and buying 60 dollar games, hyping and buying 500 dollar cell phones, hyping and buying 4 digit computers and equipment-- the list goes on and on. Which is why topics like these annoy me.

Dudes on here advocating against moving out? Jesus smh

As to the music im of two minds. I'm also one who was faithfully in the record store on tues and have bought my share of tapes and CDs. Stole thousands of dollars worth too.

Now I like I can download an album and not get took with 1 or 2 good songs and the rest trash. Got caught out there alotta times on that.

 

[Sukairain]

I got the bug for buying CDs this year

Ain't shyt seeing CD quality except for FLAC, which is pointless because there's no way my 1700 song library would fit onto my iPod or phone in FLAC format. Also the system in the whip is old af and doesn't have Bluetooth or even aux, so I actually need to use CDs. Plus paying for CDs is ok since you get the physical product and the artwork

I used to think like "I'm going to download shyt for life" when I was a teenager but I was broke as fukk now I'm getting a bit of paper, it ain't no thing to buy music

I bought Piñata digitally, no regrets.
