I buy it, especially since most of the artists I listen to are affected by the massive download of their music.

I get my music through a company called XMIX. They have a great deal. you get 6-7 CDs a month for $69.99 a month. And all the music you get is all the new stuff. Its an great thing to get if your a mobile DJ.

Buy off NapsterThanatos465

That's what I use. Monthly subscription, unlimited access to Napster's catalogue, and I can put it on my MP3 player. Music fan's bliss.

I buy a few songs, but I'm actually on a subscription model with Napster (which I love)... If there's any songs that I can't get from Napster or buying them, I'll look on Limewire for it.

I buy some CD's if the artist is worth buying

Other than that I download, As a musician myself I would rather have people downloading my music and enjoying it, then not buying it at all, live is what matters to me, but hey some people like to be filthy rich.

I torrent when I can't find the CD in store.
Otherwise, I just buy CDs at shows.

I try to buy. But most of my music is very hard to find, even to illegally download it.

I buy my CDs, for the same reason I buy my movies...I like having the physical item in my hand and I enjoy the collector/displaying aspect of it. Mainly, I just like having something tangible for my money.

My friends and I have a cd trading ring where we bring our cds to school, and rip them. I also own a lot of cds from my favorite bands. I buy on Itunes usualy, but If I can't find it there, I look on projectplaylist.com

I used to pirate all my music but now I only use limwire to see if I like whoever I listen to, and if I do I'll go out and buy the CD.

I download the songs that I like, and whenever I really like a band I buy their CD. Some bands just have one or two good songs on a CD, I don't want to spend $15 on a CD for just a few good songs.

I dont see the point in buying when you can get it for free and then just burn it to a cd or put it on ur ipod

I download it, but it's legal here. Althought sometimes I do buy. Not very often though.

I buy 97% of my music on iTunes, and the rest at Target or FYE (if I'm desperate, because they charge you $10 more than a new album on iTunes for everything!)
