Do you still buy album CDs anymore?

by Leolaia in

or do you mainly download?

i have been revamping my '80s music collection this week and resorted to downloading a bunch of music from amazon to upgrade to higher quality mp3s.

i have a ton of cds that i have ripped my music from as well, but i had to fill those holes with stuff i could only get from online stores.

I buy CDs!

I only ever download if I just want a specific track by someone I don't really like.

I recently bought an EP by Joshua Radin which was only available exclusively from iTunes.
I love the music I bought but it was a terrible experience - "buying data" nothing to show or hold . . .
I burned into on to a "Tesco CDR" and it feels tacky!

Yes i use an iPod and my phone for listening on the move which is great - but give me the "Real Thing" any day.

What exactly are you gonna have to show for your money and as the "soundtrack of your life" if you buy data LOL

So let me get this straight

a web site called jehovah-witness.net where x-jw's and jw's who pretend to be jw's come to chat about how bad jehovah witnesses are and how they brain washed them etc, would it not be more productive to move on and forget than to let something most of you obviously hate take so much of your time and effort.. for some being a jw is about not being part of the world, what other religion is there that is as moral as a jw.

i am d'fed but i belive that jw's are the true religion.

sure some of them can be self righteous pricks but there imperfect just like anyone else,we all need to focus on us and not worry about what there doing because we can't change them.. .

JW facebook page growing fast, and already outing troublemakers......

interesting place to lurk and in just a few days there are 180 members....i quickly noticed there are very many posts raising questions elders hate to be asked...like why is there a no face hair rule except for mustache?.....and many others...like wedding rings are pagan...but due to nobody feeling that way now...why is that rule not applied to everything else like it...and on and on from many who have posted...... and they ususally want to know if there are biblical reasons for the rule or teaching!!!

!......this thing will not last long........oompa.

oh and if you join...the guys running it send pms to you listing the "trouble makers" found on the site....not sure if they can be kicked out without violating the rules like cussing and porn posting.......i just wonder how many tough questions they will let be discussed..... .

Pubsinger

Have they kicked Besty out of the group then?

with decisions by bankers etc bringing down financial systems, other situations decisions have had wie ranging consequences makes one wonder if a single decision could bring things down.

Pubsinger

Has a single mistake brought down the Mormon Church?

Or the Christadelphian Church? Christian Scientists? Seventh Day Adventists? Any Church?

Hmmmm . . .

It's not gonna happen.

Individuals will however come to personal conclusions.

i have notified admin to address the email/identity issues.

Pubsinger

OK I'm confused!

I take it it's not totally live yet?

Folk Music thread anyone

Pubsinger

I find the "folk" tag one of the most confusing as I like quite a bit of the stuff here but I wouldn't classify it as folk - Alison Krauss being an example.

I normally lump them all together as (mainly) acoustic singer songwriters.

Here's a couple . . .
