Aye, I still buy CDs, but if I can hear the album a few days before it's release date, the temptation is there to download it since it's leaked, just out of curiosity. As well as the excitement of going to get it, bring it home, listen to it, discussing it with your friends in school must have been brilliant. "Have you heard that new band Nirvana?" "Who?" "Nirvana, they have just released their second album. It's amazng!"
Clicking pre order and then waiting for it to drop through the door definitely doesn't have the same buzz around it.
