Just wondering, do you pirate music? I don't, buy it off iTunes. I feel guilty when I pirate music. Plus it's illegal.

 

 

 

I heard lots of people pirate it, is this true?

I do, and it's not illegal. It's wrong, but that's a different story.

It's not illegal? I thought it was. :o

In some places its illegal.

I don't know anybody close to me who doesn't "pirate" music.

I don't.

 

 

 

I buy my CDs, because, well there are piracy laws and such, at least this way, I have the original physical copy.

 

 

 

Though admittedly, I used to. I have a copy of a CD which I now own.

Yeah, I feel guilty downloading it illegally off the internet too. :(

 

The majority of my music is ripped off my CD's and the rest is just single songs off iTunes.

 

 

 

So no, I buy.

I buy my music, when I don't want to, I Youtube it :lol:

 

So no pirating.

Occasionally if I really like a song I'll buy it off iTunes. Otherwise I just listen to it on Youtube/Last.fm if a full track is offered. Occasionally I buy CDs.

 

 

 

Nothing illegal.

[bleep] yes.

 

 

 

Only if I really want it, though.

 

 

 

I usually will buy it at FYE or on iTunes if I'm like, "Eh, I'll get this when I feel like it."

 

 

 

Usually often with new releases.

Not really. I usually buy my cds.

Yes.

 

 

 

I'm not going to try and morally justify it or anything. I just do.

Yeah, I barely buy any CDs anymore. No job and such.

in the past five years I've payed for two songs. out of 7500+

I buy tons of vinyl, and convert them to mp3, but I still have roughly 3,000 songs I torrented.

I torrent them because I listen to stuff you can't get in the UK. If I do listen to someone like that then I still torrent it. It's just meh, I'm not proud nor am I ashamed.

Yes, I do. Although I have begun buying CD's that I like when I have the money and can find them. A lot of the stuff I listen to you can't exactly go down and buy at your local Best Buy, however.

Hell yes, definately. I like certain songs of certain bands, whose CDs are hard to find nowadays and whose other songs I don't give a damn about.

 

 

 

With CDs/albums, you get a whole leap of overpriced songs. By pirating, I can get one specific song.

About 95% of the time, yes. If I love a CD, I'll try to buy it though.

Yes.

 

And I like how nobody argues with him, just because it's Nadril. If it was some other kid all you guys would be all over him.

Yes.

Orly?

 

I dont think so. Others said they downloaded music illegally and they didn't get jumped on (I think.)

Yes.

Ok?

Absolutely, musicians don't make as much off an album as you might think. They make money off touring. I go to concerts, pay them well worth their while and download their music.

Yes.

What? I can name 8 people who posted before him who admitted to pirating music and didn't have anybody all over him.

 

 

 

Someone sent me a link to a news article that claimed, 'People who pirate music are 10 times more likely to buy the actual thing' or something along those lines.
