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.. Look saracen.. as i have wrote here i am going through my downloaded albums and sorting them into what i want to keep and what i dont, so what i keep i will buy the albums but the ones i dont i will delete
I dont normally moan at people on this forum, but i hate all this high and mighty stuff.. i know its wrong to have something that does not belong to me, but i need time to review an album.
I dont have the money to buy all the albums i like a couple of songs from, i used to buy all the album i could every month now i buy what i can afford, which is less than £20 per month so if you see my point of view i am reviewing before buying, but i will admit to keeping them longer before buying than anticipated, but as i have already wrote i am in the process of buying all the albums that i like..
I own all my software and DVD's its just Music i have to take more time over..I am picky in what music i like and get annoyed when an album only has 1-2 songs i like on it, and i dont buy singles full stop.
I take advice from friends about good films, then i see them at the cinema if i like them then i buy them.
Games i read reviews on the internet and magazines then decide to buy.
But music i have to make my mind about over a period of time, the songs have to grow on me before my wallet opens.
Whatever it is that was copyrighted to you, i can understand it taht you would threaten legal action.
Hopefully they were only previewing it and were going to buy but i know a lot of people do not.
As i wrote at the start i buy a lot less now i have broadband, but i am buying a lot more now as i realised i was doing what i hated other people doing and enjoying something that does not belong to them.
But now i've seen the error of my ways, i am slowly but surely replacing all my copys with originals.
I just think the RIAA should leave us all alone, to make our own decisions on whether we buy.
As they would just lock me up, and sue the pants of me even though i was going to buy?? why wouldnt it be better just to warn us and then come back 6 months later and see if we have bought or destroyed the offending copyright material.. just my opinion
im sorry if it offends you or anyone else
