When i think of the heaps of recommended albums i see here, i get so dizzy i could fall of my chair. First Aphex, i still need: ICBYD and RDJ album for my must have list. Then BoC, i started with Geogaddi and i MUST have MHTRTC. Then Autechre. Do they have a load of albums or what? I cant choose one! Then PLaid, everybody is enthousiastic about these guys too. Then Brian Eno and just now i read somethin about Amon Tobin. i want it all, if not more than that. Downloading mp3's is not an option. i want the real thing.. I'm so bored today i'm lookin for cd's to buy from the net even though i dont have money for em. This is all you guys' fault, but thats ok, i care about good music because you do. *sigh* |

Just slowly build the collection...dont go out and buy like 10 at a time or anything, you wont be able to absorb the music as well.... You'll get there it takes time to build a great collection. =) |

You are insane, j198, why do you want original CD's? I have all artists you mentioned on burned cdr's and have no problem with it. |

thats a neverending conversation. A lot of people will agree that burned cd's are fine and a lot of people will say its just not the same thing. From the Aphex albums i have, i got Drukqs on cd-rs because i got it from somebody but i still want the original CDs. It just bothers me. |

you can have all the music you want ,before you turn 22, use the internet,and when you have too much money,buy something you really can't find on the internet(wich almost doesn't exist) and if you want to support the artists ,go see them, it's a much better experience then putting on a cd at home... and you have the money for it coz you don't buy cd's |

I think that burnt cd's are great, it's alot better than no tunes, but if I really like some thing (SAW2 for example) I would definitley hunt down originals, I like to think that paying for it might actually help the artist out and thus more material to listen to ... |
||||||||

Yeah, helping artists is a motive for bying originals that i can support. But i'm an imoral person and when deciding whether I should do a little stealing (i.e., burning a cdr) or be left withou music, I have no dilemas. besides, paying for gigs really is much more important to touring musicians... |

I like buying cds because I want to support something I care like other people support britneys etc buyng their albums...so I understand the problem.some artists have an infinite discography but slowly I'm sure I'll get all I want. My problem is finding something. tradional shop order only shit music. what I like comes out after month since the official release |

hehe, I have an idea we should burn our CDs and send money directly to the artists to support them... |
||||||||

|

yeah probably I would spend less money! |

I dont mind burned cd's, but its different for my aphex twin albums as it's become more like a collection than just another few cd's. i dont want 8 original ones and one copied cd. Also, for example, Geogaddi's cover and booklet art is as beautiful as the music. I couldnt stand looking at a white piece of paper with 'BoC Geogaddi' on it and nothing else while listening to their music. I would just feel something was missing. As for seeing the artists, thats easier said than done. My fellow dutch 'boarders' here know this. Flying to London to see Richard isnt something i can afford often. |

J: I take your point and say, OK. I care more about the music than the artwork so i have no problems with xeroxed or scanned covers. And about seeing artists live, well, you don't have to tell me about it... |

I like doing compilations with CD-Rs - now and again I'll burn an album but mostly I just keep em as mp3s. I do like a solid album from the shops in your hand, it is nicer... but it costs more! |

I always buy the original cd's with the artists I really like. What annoys the hell out of me is how some stores like to think they know what you want. All the good stuff is always missing in the shops. Latest example: Global Communications, the one with Alpha Phase on it. Had to order and even then I'm not guaranteed to get it. My Robert Rich & Lustmord order didn't come in :( "Soulseek, when your music store lets you down..again." -P |

i think its more immoral to charge people so much to listen to music, than to dowload it. |

i know jarworski. CD prices these days are insane to say the least. I bought Geogaddi (ltd) for about 22 $. Now that album is worth every cent of it but pretty much every new CD is reaching this sky high price and thats just not right.. Thank god i just found the RDJ album on bol.com for 12 bucks |

Almost every year I hear about some fucking 'investigation' into the price of cds, and nothing ever comes of it. I mean, is £14 a fair price for a single cd? Cause I'm a person who wants a cd when it comes out, I can't wait for no fucking sales... |

Yeah, too much music... I have gigantic MP3 collections of artists I have no time to listen to because there's too many OTHER MP3s I've already downloaded and need to hear... too much music, too little time. But I haven't bought a CD in a while, there's no point in my mind. |
