1500 CDs!!!!

mx · 21-03-2006, 10:07

CD. As I can play them on more devices than MP3s, and their a tangible item.

Limewire

Yes. Too many to pick one.

Yes, to keep up-to-date with new releases, download freebies.

T'internet

As much information as possible.

Streaming radio stations, random limewire searches.

400 CDs/ 0 records/ 1500 MP3s

Yes

1. CD - because I like to have a tangible object. I also like having liner notes, etc. Prefer listening to CDs in the car instead of having to try to drive and manipulate an MP3 player.

2. I download music from my friends hard drives. File-sharing the old fashioned way.

3. Yes, don't have a favorite, though.

4. Very infrequently.

5. I don't because I know they aren't playing anywhere near here. And I'm not much for concerts.

6. Track listing, lyrics are nice to have. Supplemental information is good, but not necessary.

7. Through friends and www.allmusic.com (they list a section of similar bands on each band page). I don't actively seek new music to listen to usually.

8. CDs: Around 200 bought, 100 burned, and 5,000 MP3s.

9. Sure.

Cheers for all the help!!

Dusty · 21-03-2006, 16:29

those are all original CDs as well of course, I don't do pirated stuff.

sean_r · 21-03-2006, 17:04

Do you not do pirated stuff because you don't get the artwork? Or becuase of sound quality?

pgo · 21-03-2006, 17:13

I do it because it's a good way to try before you buy. Also, all the stuff I keep that's copied is stuff I probably wouldn't buy anyway. A lot of it is copies of my own CDs. Or I'm going to buy in the future when money is available.

Dusty · 21-03-2006, 17:45

Its a bit of both, I love music artwork, and I play my stuff on a pretty heavy duty seperates system, you definately notice the difference between an original and an average quality MP3. I remember I tried bjorks vespertine album on mp3 first, and so much detail was lost in her voice when compared to the final CD. If you only listen to things on your Pc or on an ipod on the way to work, then perhaps quality isnt so important.

For anyone anal enough, you can look at what I've horded so far at: http://www.discogs.com/collection?user=Dusty

dura · 21-03-2006, 19:09

Is that all copies you have Dusteh?? If it is respect!

Didn't see the DJ Kentaro "On The Wheels Of Steel" in the Ninja section tho.

Also have you seen "Scratch" a documentary by Doug Pray. It's got a section on digging, and the shop that Shadow goes too.

Dusty · 21-03-2006, 19:46

no, but that sounds very cool, will check it out.

onecan · 21-03-2006, 20:45

CD. Artwork, and it's nice to know you're giving something back to the artists.

Yes, from Solarseek (Mac Soulseek), Acquisition and sometimes Torrent it.

I do and, um i'm not sure. er, Arcade Fire - Funeral

Yes, Gigs, Images, Mp3s, Videos, Lyrics

Their website, their wikipedia

Band members, lyrics

Word of mouth, saidthegramophone.com sometimes, Last.fm reccomended artists, Amazon reccomended artists

CD's - 300 roughly
MP3s - 7455 Songs
Records - 'bout five

I do, I hate my copied cds! (of which there are only a handful)

Made me laugh, no mention of the fact that it's illegal in there.

Scratch is an awesome film.

dura · 22-03-2006, 14:56

There's another film in the same line as Scratch called Keepintime: A Live Recording. Havn't seen it yet but it's a perfomance by Shadow, Cut Chemist, Shortkut, etc with the drummers from the funk records that are so heavily sampled, looks amazing.

Is that the one where he goes down to the basement full of vinyl? Or is that something else?

It was cool, whatever it was.

dura · 22-03-2006, 17:57
