We are seeing the slow death of the compact disc. Record stores are closing down more and more as Internet music sales are growing. So whast your opinion, is this a good thing or bad thing. Are you for the compact disc or do you think all music should be bought on the internet. Discuss. _________________ But I cannot discover any advantage except in honor, in glory, and in right action.

I prefer real CDs, but there are several instances where I'd buy (and do buy) electronically. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

Electronic signatures that only allow downloads to be put on 1 computer and 1 other device. Coming to a future near you... big brother I prefer the CD. |

I do both as the situation dictates; they are not mutually exclusive. If I can't find what I want at a store for $10 or less, I get it on iTunes. I like packaging, but not enough to pay what the RIAA thinks I should pay for it. _________________ INTELLECT AND ROMANCE OVER BRUTE FORCE AND CYNICISM Smokemonster |

why? because i'm not gonna fly all the way up to sweden or some place to get the actual cd. goddddddddd!!! I would so be for that. Granted, I got the new Concretes single online instead of suffering the dollar's current weakness by paying for the physical disc. _________________ My photography:www.jamiemphoto.com You can't spell awesome without emo...backwards! -Julie definingawesome (11:44:11 PM): Eisley shivers our timbers |

To be honest, I won't buy a CD in shops any more unless it's cheap. Amazon marketplace and play.com are the zones. I get CD's brand new for £6. Shops just can't compete with those kinds of prices. I used to work in a second hand record shop and watching go bankrupt was heartbreaking. |
