I use allofmp3 primarily to sample music. If I like it, I buy the real CD, mainly because I find that liner notes are often very informative. Or, if someone in my band wants us to learn a certain song, and I need it TODAY, I'll download it. Insane, indeed. The manufacturing costs for a CD are a small fraction of what it used to cost to manufacture an LP. The problem is, the music industry, like the movie industry, just got too damned greedy. We have several hundred CDs, but I've only purchased a few recently because of the pricing. Same with DVDs...I just wait for them to show up on the premium cable channels, and they always seem to, and faster than ever. Another problem with CDs...there rarely are more than three or four songs on a CD that I really like...the rest I listen to once and never listen to again. That's why I prefer downloading and paying for what I want. Three songs I like, even at 99 cents each via iTunes, is better than three tunes I like and 11 I don't, for $16.95 on a CD. The death of the "album" is at hand. |
