As opposed to listening to other forms of music. What do you think? Example:
Pro: I can listen to IDM whatever sort of mood I'm in. I can't do this with rock music.
Con: I can't find the fuggin CDs anywhere.

Pro: it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling and makes me feel really good about myself (seriously!) :D well so does psy and to a greater extent happy hardcore but idm is heavenly in its own way (yes i prefer the slower melodic stuff like boc, early AE etc.)
cons: There are too few to share the joy with *imagines a club playing idm all day/night*
Cons:not many people

pro- its music to suit all moods
con- sometimes when u want to see what an artist is like you have to buy their stuff over the net coz its not in shops, then pay the extra cost of delivery and wait ages, then it reaches you...and you hate it.
And next year you hear someone elses copy and you like it and wish you hadent thrown it awya and you must start from scratch coz no one will lend you theirs coz its so rare.

Hmm. I don't like Blue but I need the 2nd and 3rd album plus the solo thing they have out soon. If you could help me that would be great. I don't think they are out yet.
I'll give you a mail sometime if you are willing to help. Thanx.

Ugh?
I have a shitload of singles and the first album on original but thanks to the fucking music ind the 2nd album never came out in the UK so I had to download it. I'd rather have an original. I presume the same will happen with the 3rd and 4th CDs too.

*grins* It's Europop.
Everytime I bring up Eiffel 65 people bring up Blue. They do other stuff now and if you dig they don't release albums with Blue on 15 times. }:> They have moved on, Blue was on the first album and we are up to number 3 now. :>

Blue, UK pop group? No, I'd rather die thanks.

Old news to me dude. And I like 80's Stars. It don't mean I expect you to like them. }:>
People tend to listen to music they like it. If someone doesn't like something then they don't listen to it unless forced to do so. This means dude, Just because you don't like it doesn't mean others won't.

No singing or lyrics...
It's VERY hard for me to find voices I like, it's really irritating and I wish I wasn't so discriminating when it comes to singers... if a great band has an average singer, then no matter how great the music is, the singer will turn me off. Don't have to worry about this with IDM.
Same goes for lyrics, though maybe not as bad.
