I happen to post on a msg board that's dedicated to one region, but quality is quality. Where an artist is from doesn't matter to me. I've bought a ridiculous amount of cd's and I've spent a lot of money on it, so about two years ago I made rules for myself for when to buy cd's:- To support an artist/group (i.e. Westurn Union's album didn't have much replay value, but I did want to support the group because of Soopafly and because of the bad ass mixtape they put out);- To complete my collection (i.e. I collect R. Kelly retail albums, good or bad);- If I feel like I can listen to the cd 5 years from now (i.e. Fort Minor - "The Rising Tied" & Rhymefest - "Blue Collar").
I buy albums based on Quality and integrity. I've gone as far as emailing indi artists and having them mail me cd's directly. I also buy albums when I seem em like "LAX" or "Ego Trippin". It helps when albums are like 8 dollars, I usually won't hesitate in cases like that. Also, if you're throwin money around in a video like it's nothin. You ain't gettin mine.

I'm always gonna be bootlegging albums, but I also spend a lot of money to see artists live. When you buy an albums so much of the money goes to the label/store that you're putting much more money into the pockets of guys you like by going to they shows.
