hey fuck you too! i have many cds, here's some


they release pretty much good stuff nowadays on cd and it's getting better all the time. i've been buying cds for a bit over a year so far, so the collection isn't that big, but it's growing constantly! i can get most tracks that i wan't on cd, legally, so your comment was pretty stupid!

John Smith I 100% agree with you. I even posted something similar in response to John Flemming's messageboard post about stopping production due to mp3s.

If it wasn't for mp3s I wouldn't have bought most of my vinyl and cds, actually I probably would still be listening to rock (smashing pumpkins, mogwai, cure, new order, ect) on CD and never had bought my tts or gotten into trance.

I also can't see where you can get the single songs(ones that aren't mixed at stores). FOr me i burn my cd's for mixing. The only other alternative is go buy records and if you know...they can get real expensive.

I spose though these producers only slave away dedicating their life to creating we love so I agree we should steal it.

I think you'll agree that most vinyl DJs are extremely annoyed by the fact that they MUST make the investment in vinyl in order to play a track, while a CDJ (or even better, those new MP3Js) will be able to play any track that is available by download.

When I first started doing mixing on my computer, I had no choice but to download MP3s, but my mixes were primarily for my own enjoyment (thought I ended up with a bunch of people downloading my mixes and greatly liking them).

When I bought turntables in January, I knew that vinyl would be expensive. Dropping $100-$150 in a single go is common for me, and I don't exactly have tons of coin.

That said, I am finally actively supporting the music that I love through purchasing vinyl, so I feel that I'm doing my small part in the overall industry. When I eventually buy some Pioneer or other brand CDJs, it will mostly be for the purpose of getting comfortable on them, as well as mixing in the odd track that is impossible to find on vinyl (such as older tracks). I also like the archiving concept, though I'm not sure I would ever spin entirely on CDs.
