CD impulse buying...

How many CDs have you bought just "on impulse", and how
often do you find that you do this?

I find that I'm always buying albums on a whim, it's a great
way to discover new artists and stuff. That's how I
discovered "Brothomstates" as an example...

i usually find other forms of putting albums onto my
computer

you see, my computer has an excellent sound system, so i
play all of my music on it

yes

unless of course i can't find an album online (which is
rare), then i'll buy it

If I ever catch up with all the music I want to buy, maybe
then I would.

all the time...
I also love having my first listen on actual CD (or vinyl,
but I don't buy any vinyl at the moment cuz I haven't got
anywhere to play it)...
yep, many buys. There is this purchase I've been waiting to
do for 3 years now (or more, heh) that I'll do when I get my
cash the 23rd... but that's not very impulse I guess.

pissed at myself when i get something utterly crap

never... i always try to find reviews/sound samples/etc.

well, once i did buy a cd in impulse - but then i didn't
open it and eventually i took it back to the store for an
exchange after searching for stuff about it on the internet
o_O

sometimes it is on half-impulse though, for example just
listening to it in the shop.... (most of the time it's not
enough to get an idea.)

sometimes...usually when i know the artist, which probably
doesn't mean"on impulse" :)
normally i like to hear samples or read reviews.

want them, that sucks

i can be an impulsive buyer. especially when ordering
online.
i read the comments, see what label it is on and what cover
it has.

buyers...
