Are we all like viruses, expecting things for free, consuming, spreading, hogging, and pissing at will? |

i found my dreamcast the other week so im playing shenmue again at the moment. its thrillingly dull and i love it |
||||||||

I always visit the arcade to play space harrier when things get to dull. |

I'd buy way more stuff if I wasn't a poor student. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I'd buy more stuff, if every distributer didnt take thier "cut", which would in effect make cds/records/7"s cheaper, ala Dischord Records, which 7"s are $4.00, cds/lps are $10.00, all postage is paid. And you wonder why for an Indie lable they are doing so good. |

thats exactly what i do. |
||||||||
|

|
|
where is my price? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I'm skint. I buy stuff when I can. Gone are the glory days of £100+ per week on vinyl. Not spending approximately £100 per quarter on music :( |

I solemnly declare now, in an Open Post to Rephlex, that I will hand them over the sum of 15 British Pounds if they release a new Aphex Twin / AFX album. The challenge has been laid down. |
||||||||

No chance of losing your dollar in the near future. |
||||||||

|
Does it matter if the Aphex Twin/AFX tracks are potentially 10+ years old, or do they have to be newly created. Would you do the same for a release on MenRecords. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
To think if I invested that money now, then when AFX did release a new album, the interest accrued would probably just about cover my bus fare into town. |

Support the entertainment you love by purchasing a new, original edition. i hate that phrase. blatant money-grabbing attempt. RDJ is a greedy cunt. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
if he was he would release 100's of release a year, i think the purpose is to: support and buy the music you love, not just d/l the internet, and i agree with him |
||||||||

I remember back in the days before the internet as we know it today, when I bought an LP/EP I really appreciated it and played it loads. I've lost that now with everything available for free. |

It's a bit like when I got my Playstation chipped. I ended up with about 200 games and played about 3 of them! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i still do that. i always prefer to buy a hard copy (CD usually) and play it right through while admiring the pretty cover, looking out over the fields and cows and fog between the hills etc. when i am back home. why does rephlex say purchase "a new original edition"? whats wrong with the old editions of everything? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
very sad. i still love to buy music. Ezkerraldean: they dont want you to buy and old edition off from a second hand store or ebay. if you buy an orginal edition the label/artists actaully gets paid.....what a concept |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don't get me wrong, I still buy original CDs. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's a good question |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

my thing is, as im getting older, there just isnt as much great awesome music out there as there used to be, that and being daddy means i cant spend $50+/week on records/cds :) I now buy a couple of cds a month, depending on whats out there and call it good, ive been buying music since i was about 10, tapes back in the day, and now at 32, THERE HAVE BEEN LOADS of shite i shoudlnt have bought :) but you live, you learn. |

I guess I have to give back my old copy of Quadrastate and buy a new one then. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im selling everything i own in one massive lot on ebay, search for it, the lot is called "crap" everything must go, rock bottom prices :) |

When I moved over to Chile I threw away about a skip full of CDs and Records, and I can't even remember what a fraction of them were. Awful old clutter. Thank goodness for invisible, tidy MP3s. |

I downloaded about a gizzillion SNES ROMs, played some of them for five minutes each and then put them on disc and haven't touched them since. I agree - when things are more readily available they lose their worth: it's economics... however, I've just bought a ukelele and that's something you can't download from SLSK or Azureus, and it's fab! I've discovered three chords already!! |

"when things are more readily available they lose their worth: it's economics... " exactly, thats why a lot of times to me: cd-rs feel/look so useless and shitty, even though there might be some really good songs/videos on them |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that was a fallow up to marlowe.... "a gizzillion" How many zeros after the decimal place is that? :) |

"when things are more readily available they lose their worth: it's economics... " Well put and exactly what I was getting at. |

I actually love that phrase. |
