as for whether i buy cd's or not i do occasionally when i can a) afford them and b) if they have special-edition stuff (bonus dvd, etc) but other than that i'd rather spend money on going to the live shows and supporting the artists and not the corporate labels that have more money than anyone needs... now all i need is for me to have money and decent artists to come to ottawa (grrenday's f****n sold out already :( )
I buy at least 2 CD's a month. It's an addiction.
Occasionally. If I have some extra $$$ lying around or if its a album where the sound quality really matters, something like Mogwai or Sigur Ros...
i havent bought a cd for months, the last one i bought was from a bargain bucket, you can find somethings you wont find anywhere else.
I still buy CDs but not very often. The last disc I bought was Brian Eno's Apollo.
