How Do You Get Your Music?
What the title says. I'm really curious to see how different members of the site obtain their music.
Do you search blogs? Are you a torrent pro? Are you a usenet user? Do you prefer to buy all or most of your albums? Are you a member of the scene? Me personally, I probably obtain the majority of my music through torrenting and the searching blogs.

Torrenting seems to work a lot quicker for me, and you can download entire discographies pretty easily. Other than that i pop into record shops.

MP3's I get from blogs/Internet friends, but all the random vinyl I have I've obtained by being part of the skramz scene I guess. Friends or bands that are friendly usually have hooked me up with their stuff or duplicates of rare/out-of-print stuff.

Local record shops Various Internet methods including blogs but mostly a certain P2P. Torrent only when I can't find something elsewhere (don't like sharing and worrying about a ratio). |

I don't use blogs/ rapidshare etc often, becasue I'm very picky on the bitrates, I prefer only mp3s with 320 or flac. So, for me, torrents is far easier.
