When I download music, it's to listen to a new band or album so I can decide if I want to buy it or not. I've bought dozens of cd's I'd have never bought had I not listened to a few tracks first. I'm too broke to buy a cd having only heard about them from reviews and recommendations!

But smaller, like Dresden Dolls, DeVotchKa, Myriads etc. The ones that dont have a huge fanbase, and their CDs rarely hit stores(of course, Dresden Dolls are growing fast!). I will buy if I can find.

I OWN Dresden Dolls and I'm planning on getting the new CD "Yes, Virginia" when it come out about two weeks from now. And I looked for DevotchKa CDs, but there are three, and I dont have enough to buy them right now. And I just bought a Myriads CD. You dont buy any at all anymore.

I say f*ck the artists. They make money other ways. And you know how damn hard it is to find some cds?

Or a Desert Sessions album. Or nearly any band that is in a genre not native to your area.

downloading isn't killing the indutry.. I mean sure it's probably hurting, a little but the pre-manufactured crap and the indutry, itself is klilling the industry.
Everyone jsut loves to blame downloaidng 'cause it's an easy crutch.

I'm all for downloading, but at the same time I can definitely see why anyone would be against it
