That doesn't mean that I don't download occasionally, though. If there's a band that I'm curious about, but I'm ready to shell out $10-20 just to find out if I like the album or not, I'll probably download it or get a friend to burn it for me first.
Being a musician, I understand the idea of wanting your music to be your livelihood. If nobody buys the CDs, then that idea is next to impossible.

I like that saying, people who download singles and are content with that are idiots. Especially when they say they love the arist. E.g people download Sex On Fire and now they love Kings Of Leon. It's a joke, they call themselves fans when many people, such as myself have had their 3 other records for a while.
You're a musician? what do you play? you in a proper band, doing gigs? if you do gigs, what kind of things you play? cover songs? I'm in the process of learning the guitar and I write alot. Best of luck to you
