Y'all? Do you still go out and buy "real" CDs?

All the time. I can't stand the quality of downloads.

I still buy CDs.In fact,I rarely download anything.I prefer to have an actual CD in my hands,with the liner notes,lyrics,photos,etc.I don't really care about things like iPods and mp3 players.

I still buy vinyl records too,so you can see that I'm really "old school" lol

of course

I buy more vinyl than CDs though
and I only purchase compact discs
if the album is a masterpiece

I have bought some junk too
but that's only when I
have the extra cash to spend

like Lily Allen's album (of 2006)
I bought that blinfolded
I'd never heard her music
but I heard so much about her

and I actually like that album
more & more everytime I play it

Hell yeah, and I'll be buying them until they don't make them anymore. I might buy me a computer for home with my income tax return (that's the only way I'd be able to afford one) but even when I get one, I sure as hell ain't got the money for a high speed internet service each month or the patience to wait for something to download through dial up internet service. Not everyone is fortunate enough to have mummy and daddy to pay their bills. lol

Naw you're not all alone. I don't care for the sound of downloads ansd don't like listening to music on my computer. Problem is I'm too lazy to head the b&m store to buy new things and too impatient to order discs online. I end up cruising torrent databases for live stuff until I get around to stopping by the local store.

I'd probaly buy a lot of DVDs, but I don't feel like sitting around the TV listening to music. I do most of my listening in the car, lacking an analog tape deck, stuff has to be put onto the iPod or come off satellite radio if it's not on CD.

Yes. I like having something tangible to hold; the excitement of peeling back the plastic wrap to play the music within for the first time. MP3's just don't have the same feeling to them. Or the same sound quality, for that matter. Plus, anyone who'd actually pay 99 cents for one song has got to be braindead.

Not as much as I use to within the early 1990's. Hell, it been a long while since I last burned a mix CD. And I still don't own a mp3 player yet.
