I want to know what I'm getting, so I first download it and then buy or don't buy.

Don't download - I'm satisfied listening to vinyls in record stores, and listening to samples from online stores.
However if I already own the vinyl then I'll keep an eye out for an mp3 too.

I generally dl and then buy but sometimes when I cant find what I'm looking for in a store or online I will dl to keep. FWIW I think filesharing is awesome. It has really exposed to me to new artists that I probably would not have heard of were it not for mp3s.

almost 70% of my record collection i probably wouldn't have known to buy without researching tracks via dling before hand. i buy a lot of older records so there aren't really any online samples...
