I hope your not serious.
You honestly believe that the artist who created that new track/album/mix comp that you recently downloaded doesn't deserve a penny?!?!? I could understand if someone wants to preview (via MP3, Real Player etc.) what they may be investing in but, if you dig it go out and purchase it. :)

When it comes to trance music, most people dont really have much of a choice but to download the songs... most of the songs dont come out on CDs. As for me, being that Im a DJ, I do download songs, but I use them as a scouting tool and if I like the single I do buy in on record, Im sure as do other DJs.

Are you trying to start some sort of argument?

Yeah I am with VLad and everyone else. If a album has one good song then why buy it and its not easy to find some trance albums. One example Ferry Corsten released a album in Japan this year, it cost 40 dollars cuase its an import and shipping cost
$22 now add this up 62 dollars ,no way I love Ferry but thats to much and thanks to Kazaa I have it now.



Peace Out and Holler back:D :D :toothless :toothless

Not trying to start an arguement, just feel that when an artist pours their soul into something he/she deserves to see some support from his/her fans.

You'r right but, since when do you have to be a DJ to own a turntable.

Moral of the story is that these guys/gals that produce/provide the music that we all love will not be able to do so on the consistent basis they are now or not at all due to financial reasons.
