Buying CD's

How old are you Metts?

Vinyl people sang the same song when they got replaced. Still swearing it sounds better.

I miss CD's because when you paid money for you you tried to get value out of it. I'd listen to shit I didn't love because I had just paid money for it. CD's had value. I've downloaded 100 albums I've probably never even listened to. I want to, I just don't have the free time, and most (if any) of this shit isn't kid friendly. Plus, CD's would force you to keep it on repeat. It was in my CD player and I didn't have 20 other CD's with me. It was in my car, and yea, I had 10 other CD's in my backseat, but THIS shit was new. That's when certain CD's represent a time period in your life, because you kept listening to it. It's changed the landscape of producing music, too. Artists have to grab your attention, and they've adapted. Which is why I love independent music, because a lot of the times you can tell they're doing it because they want to. There's a lot of reasons to miss the way music was in the '90s. At the same time, if not for Napster, I never would have heard of half the people I listen to. I heard one, and it would lead me to another. There wasn't this laundry list of websites promoting people. It was still word of mouth, but via MP3. MP3's have been marketed now. Independent artists learned to market their independence. Money ruins everything.
