Your opinions about pirating music.
Beelblue
a terrible terrible sin

i never do it

becaus eif you think about it, these poor talented musicians will never have a family or kids because we don't help support them financially. which means over thegenerations music wil get worse and worse until there is no more art left.
they will suffer hunger pangs and ill health and pain.

then the devil will come to claim your soul.

no! so.. never pirate. don't pay too much but i think you should pay some.

what's pirating music? O_O
is that music played by people on the streets or at random places like skytrain stations where they have a case that you could put money into?

^lmao. It's downloading music for free and not buying the albums.

It's bad. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't do it anyway.

kkkkk
i try to refrain from doing it.
i try to buy cds.
i try, but it doesn't work all the time.

of course i think it's wonderful.
especially for all my foreign stuff haha. i'm not going to shell out $40 for an album sry2say.
weird&short
nothing really...
If i didn't, i probably wouldn't have spent so much money on artists I wouldn't have discovered eitherwise.

I do download music, but I listen to a lot of bands that aren't big,
so it's a tad bit hard to find.
I attend their concerts instead, though.
I occasionally buy their cds if I run into any.
Since I can't order online.
Carmen.
Yeah, I do it.

But if I like an artist or group's songs, I'll go out and buy the album too.

Like, I'm not gonna buy an album full of songs I'm not gonna like.
`LANE
i do it.

but either way, i don't listen to music 24/7 and just listen to that one song.

sorry sad.gif

ARGGGGG AYY MATEYYYY


I buy CDs if I really think the CD is worth it... especially if they are an amazing artist who is not yet famous.
foreverxlove
I do buy CDs... SOMETIME... XD
I can't help it! T.T
My excuse is um... it harms global warming...? x]
No.. not really... I just try not to waste money ~

i do feel sorry for the artists, but in a way, it kind of benefits. if it wasn't for downloading music, i wouldn't have actually bought their albums.
NotFromThisPlanet
the cost of a cd is more than i make in one hour.
however, i still will buy a cd if i feel that i will listen to the music and it is worth my money.
if not, i will listen to songs on youtube.

BWAHAHAHAHA laugh.gif! What the hell, dude?

Um. If I really like the artist/album I buy the CD. But seeing how I'm a broke, lazy slacker, that'll have to wait. Therefore...urm yeah.
yushui
I pirated a few years ago, but I stopped.

Nowadays, I buy CDs whenever I get the chance to. Of course, I don't blindly buy CDs either. I actually stream music off of imeem to see if I like the album. If I only liked one song, then I wouldn't buy the CD just for that one song. I don't download it either. Lol. I'm fine with listening to the song off the radio/imeem/youtube.

And I would feel really terrible if I downloaded music from my favorite artists because they're fairly "indie" and probably not doing so well already. ) :

Anyway, music is more of a luxury than a necessity. Don't do the hobby if you don't have the money. P : There are other ways to be entertained too.
