Post by: Lincoln on March 03, 2006, 06:10:02 PM: I buy a lot of vinyl records, and I have over 500 CDs. Since no new music has appealed to me in a long time I've been buying very fews CDs.

Post by: Sikotic™ on March 03, 2006, 06:22:41 PM: FUCK NO! I buy 1-2 albums tops a year. I used to buy one every 1-2 weeks.

Post by: Eddie G. on March 03, 2006, 06:36:04 PM: I'll buy an album if its very solid. I'll buy probably like 10 albums a year.

Post by: Eihtball on March 03, 2006, 07:15:23 PM: Well, my problem right now is that I have a lot of tapes of classic albums, not CDs. I use the Hookup spot to re-acquire a lot of them.

But admittedly, I don't buy a lot of albums these days. I just pay for my Napster subscription, occasionally buy songs I really like, and that's about it. Though there are certainly some albums I'll be buying in the store when they come out.

Post by: MidoriHaze on March 03, 2006, 08:00:56 PM: I don't normally buy a lot of new releases, mainly thanks to i-pod technology allowing for hi-speed ports to transfer 1GB of music in about 2min, which makes for easy sharing.

However i tend to collect cds so a lot of the ones i do buy i wait about 1yr after they came out and they drop to around $12. Same with a lot of cds i have from the 60/70/80's, i buy a lot of those because they're only $10 (US$7).

I probably buy on average 3-4 cheap albums per month.
