Fisher of Men Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 The discussion came up recently that some members of our younger generation will never shop at a record/CD store. I still buy about half of my music on CD's and download the other half (although slowly downloading more often). I have noticed the music sections at Best Buy and other retailers have gotten smaller over the last couple of years. I find it kind of sad that record stores will soon fall by the wayside. How do you get your music? Quote
Bass XL Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 I get all of my cd's from a store. If I still had an ipod, I would probably get most of my music from iTunes, but I use my phone as my music player. Quote
Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted September 9, 2008 Super User Posted September 9, 2008 Strictly from iTunes now Quote
GitRDoneIke23 Posted September 9, 2008 Posted September 9, 2008 Mostly CDs I just like having something hard. (I'm not too big on computers.) The only reason I'd get an ipod is to plug it into my truck. -Ike Quote
BassResource.com Advertiser FD. Posted September 10, 2008 BassResource.com Advertiser Posted September 10, 2008 What's a CD? Oh, you mean those round shiny things next to my cassettes, albums, and yes a few 8 tracks still hanging around. I can still play the cassettes but the albums and 8 tracks are just decoration now. Along with the CD's. I download all my music from Napster. Pay .99 each for both the good songs off a cd instead of paying 12.99 for 2 good one and 8 crappy ones. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted September 10, 2008 Super User Posted September 10, 2008 All CD's i buy most of my CD's (although a lot of my music is taken from my dad's CD collection" but i also rip a lot of CD's from friends. i NEVER download music. it would just drive me crazy to download a few songs from an artist. i feel incomplete if i have a few songs but dont have the whole album.

Super User Hookemdown. Posted September 10, 2008 Super User Posted September 10, 2008 Most from iTunes. Some CD's Quote
wagn Posted September 10, 2008 Posted September 10, 2008 I prefer Cd's if i can find the album I want easily. If not then I'll download it. I just find it easier to keep track of cd's then keeping my downloads managable. Plus when I'm flipping through my cd cases i can look at cd's and have memories connected to each and ever one. I don't find the same connection with intangible downloads. I was a DJ for a few years, and have thousands of cd's and also 4 or five cases of vinyl records and still play them all. Quote
