[DAT NIGGA TAZZ]

I STILL BUY CD'S BUT NOT AS MUCH... NOBODY WANTS TO MAKE A LP... EVERYBODY WANNA DROP A MIXTAPE. FUCK MIXTAPES.

 

[Artistic]

how were you able to read this thread and start complaining about mixtapes?^^

how is it related to the thread.

do people force you to buy mixtapes?

 

[inphxerno]

Fuck all yall, Free bootlegged Mp3s shit on I tunes and the music store


although it always feels better when you get the actual CD

 

[Fucky McFuckerson]

CD'S ARE BETTER....MP3'S ARE COMPRESSED INTO A FILE AND IT LOSES SOUND QUALITY

Not if you do it properly.

Too me CD's are slowly becoming obsolete. Just like cassettes, made vinyl obsolete, digital technology will make CD's obsolete. Proof iz there, compare album sales to 5 years ago and compare digital downloads to 5 years ago. Hell, the downloads are just if not more important than SoundScans. I don't personally own an MP3 or IPod, but I've bought my kids MP3's and Ipods. I keep all my music on a flash drive that I've downloaded off of LIMEWIRE. The last time I went to a music store to buy music was when Damion Marley dropped "Welcome to JamRock". I'll never buy music from a record store again, and I'm an old cat.... lol...

 

[niguardian]

im not really asking you guys individually if you prefer to buy an album or an mp3

but rather im trying to discuss the reality of the record labels selling a format of music that is disappearing

o believe me record labels are on top of it, whatever people are buying, theyre selling, why u think i tunes and ringtones n shit were even invented

if people stopped buyin cds theyd stop sellin em and vice versa wit digital shit, sometimes they even dictate what the fuck is gonna be big next cause they got the power to put it out and advertise it

 

[keelopz]

I have an ipod, but never find the time to use it. Ever since i started driving, I just bring my cds. and whenever Im at the house I use the computer to play music.

 

[Palmer]

I'll never buy an album on mp3. I might purchase a song one day but havne't yet.

I have to admit I haven't bought an album in probably over a year but that's only cause I've gotten myself in to financial hell. One day when I get caught up again though I'll go back to buying, but for now it's download central around here.

 

[Artistic]

i think the labels should include an mp3 download link along with the cd

i don't think it will cost them anything and that way you'll feel like you're atleast getting your money's worth and won't have to rip the songs from the cd yourself

 

[Gas One]

i support my local rap scene.
i buy cd's from the artist.

so are the obsolete? maybe if you dont get out and fuck with the people malking music..7 of those cd's at the top i got within the last month.

and yeah i got an ipod too as pictured ...but thats for old music......if its from my city i pick up the disc..youll never catch me with a SD bootleg in my car.

thats just keeping it real. so nah cds aint obsolete

and i still got classics on cd that slap...like that supreme clientele...some shit that is only on mp3 in one mutha fuckas house.....i have on cd...

 

[niguardian]

^^^ i feel that i support the artists that deserve the purchase, and i would rather buy their cd than a download
