I must admit to buying a lot less albums now i have Broadband, but i am trying to rectify that now as im filtering all my downloaded albums and deciding what ones i am going to buy..
But a lot of the reason for not buying is Price, CD albums should be 9.99 old albums 4.99 & singles should be 99p
I also think DVD's should be no more than 9.99 and 4.99 for old films.
I'd always thought about getting the original version of Jeff buckleys Grace album and if'd and are'd about it cause of the price then saw it one day in HMV for 4.99 bought it without hesitating, to me it was the right price (for an old album)
But the RIAA should leave us all alone, people will take things for free if they are available but if a album is good enough (And a lot are not) then they should buy it, but searching peoples machines for copyright material is just plain wrong.
RIAA stop being so greedy and let people decide for themselves if they want to buy, most will eventually if it is good enough and cheap enough..
