Last CD buy

[fishyMishy]

How long has it been since you bought a CD?
Haven't bought one for months myself :black

[phalkon30]

usually i dont buy cds, but none of my friends have any techno :( so i have to buy those

just got the Perfecto Presents: Another World by Paul Oakenfold, for $20, i got 2 very nice cds, so i think it was worth it

other than techno, hell, ill download it or copy a friends

[collideous]

Bought a bunch of Stromkern CDs the other week. Waiting for Junkie XL's and Celldweller's new albums, and got a few dozen albums on my wishlist. If you wanna make me an X-mas present - PM me :)

[fishyMishy]

Hmmm, I've always wondered why Music Stores sell CD-R... I mean, duh - isn't it abvious why you're selling less?

[phalkon30]

why do they sell cdr? i think works something like a movie theatre does

they dont make money off of the movie, ticket, they barely cover that price (in this case cdr's), but their real money maker is the refreshments, they overprice them, thats where the money is made

bestbuy advertises lots of rebates to get you into the store and buy stuff, i think cheap cdr's are a way to reel in customers

but yeah, in some ways you're right, it is an oxy-morn type of thing

[grab_grab_the_haddock]

last month i bought "dusty in memphis" by dusty springfield and "trout mask replica" by captain beefheart. i already had em but my originals got broke when i knocked my cd stand over. Its not so easy to get good classic albums at a high bit rate. Electronica is easy to get online. just now im listening to peaches, william orbit and the orb.

HAHAHAHA....I see you've caught on to how theater chains stay alive....they really don't give a shit about you paying to get in.....cuz part of that gets kicked back to the film distro. Food/Drink is all theres. BTW I wouldn't advise you to buy any popcorn the next time you go see a movie...(if any of you ever do... :wings )


I never buy CD's.....last one I bought was the RahXephon set....come to think of it I only buy OST's I can't get off P2P.....or are of such poor quality that I'd pay to hear them in there full glory. Nothing from the states gets a dime outta my pocket.

Napster changed all that for me....soon as I logged on and got some of my favorites I was hooked....never to buy a mainstream CD again....

[2001team]

All I've bought is 2 Pac's new album "Better Dayz" and Snoop Dogg's "Paid the Cost to be the Bo$$". The only reason I bought Snoop is because it was $8.99. Other than that, I just download with my 56K :error !

i got ICP- The Wraith Shangri La about a week ago and in the next month im getting Sin Dios - Odio al Imperio and possible some more.

[Crazy Horse]

The only CDs I've bought since I got my computer are BLANK ones!!!:ass

[cpugeniusmv]

the last non-blank cd i bought........hmmm

the 101 dalmations soundtrack

:mellow

[canrocks]

The last CD i bought was Big Shiny Tunes 2. I'm buying System of a Down - System of a down but only because I borrowed it and someone stole it. Bumr.

[Karizmatik]

Tha last time I bought a CD was about 3 months ago...It was Big Tymers "Hood Rich".

[Vash_the_Stampede]

I pick and choose which CDs to buy based on how much I like the artist. i.e. I might like a few Eminem songs, but I'd never buy his album. But local artists (well... local to me) such as Captain Tractor and the Arrogant Worms, and other non-mainstream artists like Weird Al are a few examples of bands who I would buy the albums of, because I like most of their music, not just one or two songs.

Its been qutie a while since I picked up one though, but with cash from relatives (xmas) I am buying a Captain Tractor CD...

[Sockfulloflove]

i haven't bought a cd in like 6 months. and in my life, i've only bought like 5. i think.

[NightsMaster]

About a year ago I bought an Aerosmith CD that I could'nt get all the songs off from downloading.

[expertcd]

The only CDs I've bought since I got my computer are BLANK ones!!!

I second this motion....I have not bought an artist CD since I got my first burner about 4 years ago ...I paid $600.00 for the burner back then and it was still a deal if you look at my MP3 liabrary..Started tradin MP3's via FTP...Then via ICQ...Then via Napster ..Then via Audiogalaxy...Now via Kazaa lite cracked and Clean Imesh....I have since updated the burner :)

Death to all CD sales!...Let the artists make money off live concerts instead of sittin around on their lazy asses doin drugs and fuckin.....Life shouldnt be that good!

Shit I work harder then them just downloading!

EXPERTCD

[SnakeAnarchy]

o well the past weeks i have gotten a few good cds from BYO and Fat Wreck records. 4-6$ good cds with loads of good songs :)

[maartendc]

I haven't bought a cd in a few months... the last one was the new oasis.... I like it!

I still buy videogames frequently though.... I think videogame developers deserve money, otherwise they couldn't make such awesome stuff....

[chipperrox]

wow i havnet bought a cd in at least 2 years- not including beastie boys-cause i repsect them. But does "cd" include LP's? I bought a def jam sampler last week on vinyl with llcoolj, public enemy, and of course, beastie boys

lol oh man that's great....so true....

LAst Cd i bought last year even after ihad my burner...Puddle of Mudd - come clean.... Ironically i had to go to like 2 places in town to get it and the second place i wentto i managed to get the LASt copy... ah how CDS sales are faltering i love it....

[matstao]

i finally broke down & bought a couple cd's from amazon.com this week. (a compilation - 'spiritual beauty' & the residents - 'demons dance alone'). i think these were my first music cd purchases since about a week after i installed napster.

i admit that the main reason i bought them was because i couldn't find them download, but there is something nice about have the cover art/booklet and knowing i have a perfect copy. is it worth $15.00 each? - probably not. & i'm certainly not about to uninstall winmx & return my cable modem.

irrelavent, but cool smiley to follow:

:green3

[Ken17625]

I bought two albums recently. I bought them both from eBay auctions.

[CCSDUDE]

Few LP's from Ebay.....

Not CD's but, whatever. LOL

Thunder Ball from Maynard Ferguson and a rare ass Toshiko Akiyoshi LP that's been outta print since like 78.

Good condition, Ebay kicks ass sometimes. : )

Peace

[Ken17625]

Few LP's from Ebay.....

Not CD's but, whatever. LOL

Long story short, i've bought music from eBay in the last few months. And i've gotten it very cheap. I bought a CD that was priced at $39.99(American) for $19.99. It was an import version of an album that included bonus tracks and what not(2 CDs in all).

And of course I ripped the album for "backup" purposes hehehe.

[isus]

i dont use my own money to buy cdd's, i get them as gifts usually. the last cd >I< bought was kylie minogue's "fever" bc i had dl'ed about 4 songs of the 18, and decided, hey, she's not a one hit wonder, and then bought it.

haven't bought a cd since last august. lol.

[Koffee Bean]

The last CD I bought was Jennifer Lopezs' "This Is Me...Then" back at the first of December, but that was because I was still working, and could afford to buy CD's and what not, but now that I'm no longer working I don't have any money, so I don't buy any more CD's and what not's.

[Rahwgwar]

Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf, about a month ago.

[.::BeatFactory::.]

Before I bought my first cd burner, I had purchased 600-700 CD's with my own money mind you (Im just turned 18) and with no real job, just odd jobs. I found out about cd burners and saved up money and bought one when it was like (busts out receipt...) 599.99 plus tax at Circuit City = 649.49. I have NEVER bought another cd since then and I basically earned my money back b/c back then no one had burners and I made money off of people wanting a custom cd. :santa I am proud to say that I have burned over 2000 CD's to this day.

I have no idea what the last CD i bought but I think it was some Rap cd but im not sure.

Now ... to celebrate the life of P2P.. 2 lines of dancing frogs....

[Theinfamousone]

I bought a CD for my sister for Christmas a couple years ago. I have never been much of a music buyer, I got a few used CDs, occasionally at a store downtown when I was bored. When I look at the few CDs that I bought at Disc Jockey, it makes me sick how much I paid for them.

[rockr2003]

i think my last was creed before i found out about p2p and Kazaa.the wife will still buy them once in awhile if she really likes a band. doesn't like the downloading idea, or as she calls it " stealing". ( I get a hard time about it once in awhile)

[Auio]

Today I bought the Best of The Doors and The Flaming Lips album titled Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots. Anyone ever heard of this album or am I alone in the dark??
:hole Jumping for joy, why because I can...:cross

[Wolfie]

I have downloaded the flaming lips one a few weeks ago. Its kinda interesting...

[CompuGeek]

The last CD I bought was System of a Down - Steal This Album.
:sw

[backmann]

My last cd was....... a CD-R hehe.

Ivan
"In the dark we make a brighter light"

[Siskabush]

Nothing but mainstream north american garbage music in my city.

High demand for JLo, nelly, all those fag rappers for all the native people in the city (all the same taste of music.)

So, I gotta download all my techno, or get a rare CD from Saskatoon (got Rave-o-lution 1 half a year ago. 30 bucks, but worth it)

I wanna live in europe.
Techno lover's paradise.

Ah yes....when CD burners just came out
We got a 2X burner that took 30 mins to record a CD.
Cost - 300$.

Damn though, Hi demand. but 56k kinda crushed that dream.
And ever since, ive been a music pirate.

[WRFan]

the last cd I bought was Halliwell's Raining Men, then a week later I discovered Kazaa. guess what happened.

for some reason, it just feels so satisfying to steal that album.

At least a year ago, and it was Billy Idol's Greatest Hits

[ronniebravo]

Years & Years

[markg33uk]

bought 2 this week (1st ones in 2003)

1. appleton everything's eventual
2. lisa stansfield biography

[trinio]

Haven't bought an album since august '02...my last one was Siouxie & the Banshees - Twice Upon a Time, and Public Image Ltd's Greatest Hits released in 1990. And that's only ks 1)I've been looking for them for a while, and 2) they were like $10 each.

[Versacity]

I agree with CH, the only CD's I have purchased in over 3 years are blank ones.

I must have spent 10 grand in the old days on Cd's, software, etc.

So now I am fucking them 10,000 times over!

[TC75580]

I bought a few cds from Warp Records (http://www.warprecords.com) about a week ago, basically ambient techno (phalkon- oakenfold makes trance music, not techno :tilted):

Aphex Twin
-- Selected Ambient Works, 85-92

Boards Of Canada
-- Geogaddi
-- High Scores
-- In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country

Plaid
-- Double Figure

add in a free sampler that came with them

each under $15

[overdo]

last cd i bought was idlewild - remote part which i think was 2002 some time. that was off the internet though. haven't bought one from a shop for years.

btw last blank cds i bought were 2 months ago - buy 1 get 1 free offer:fire

[UBER-RAT]

the last CD i bought was 'Reflex Ultra' by TDK. :shy

but before that, the last music CDs i bought were 'Greatest Hits' by the clash and wu-tang's 1st album. bought them 3 years ago, i think. since then, my 56k has given me 3,000 mp3s and 150 movies. who needs cable?
ps: i buy games. i bought SOf 2 (it rules)

just cleaned my room: i found a copy of OldDirty Bastard's album. i paid $16.99 for this, only to find there was only one good song on it. and EVEN THAT got tiresome after a week's listening.


that situation's not happening again :shy

[TekHed]

2 years 3 months ago , copied it, took it back ,became £13.00 richer after, --BUY??? don't understand the concept,got over 2000 cd's so far couldn't afford to buy that lot ;) especially if you are only on £100,000 pa

[Undermind]

not to be anal, but what does this thread have to do with CD Cover Art anyway? can someone fill me in just in case I'm missing it, BTW what are we supposed to talk about in here anyway? if this thread was made simply 'cuz nothing else could be thought of for this forum topic, then please disregard my first question.


BTW the last CD I bought was F.o.N. - Adventures in Boredom (pre-release)

[WhitePony]

You know, I saw this thread weeks and weeks ago, but never posted shit, for the simple reason that I couldn´t really remember when I bought my last CD and what it was...

Today it hit me : it was the "Blade II" OST. And it wasn´t that long ago...6 months or something. I guess all those brain cells are finally giving up, after all the resistance they put up.

[TheIceMan]

got to be at least 2 years , maybe the matrx soundtrack , cant remember am purely mp3 now on 2 300gb drives.

[Krell]

Didnt someone else claim to have 2, 300gb drives?

[Winphuk]

I will never buy another CD till the witch hunt ends!

Haven't bought one since Napster was shut down.

[ddandelion]

last cd i bought was pipestone. i bought it last summer.

[Rahwgwar]

Just bought a CD last weekend........Audioslave, self-entitled of course......great CD

[PowerMan57two]

I always buy cds. I have bought probably 30cds so far this year for just 2003. I have not been buring for a long time. I am buying now to support the artist. I am starting to realize that it is wrong to burn if you like the whole cd. but if I like just a couple songs from various artists that is when I burn. Which is like once every two months.

[Rahwgwar]

You, my friend, have a lot of money to spend on entertainment, lol.

Keeping with that pace, you will have nearly 100 CDs from 2003 alone.

[CTC Command]

Just bought the new Ministry CD Animositisomina prior to seeing them last night on their Fournika Tour. If Ministry comes any where near, go see them. My ears are still ringing--Psalm 69, Stigmata, Thieves, Crumbs, they went an hour and half non-stop, no bullshit between songs, just their trademark wall of sound. Sinister shit...

This is the only time I usually by a CD, just before I go see someone I really like. Last store bought CD was DJ Shadow before his show last December. Or I buy their CD at the show, like the Superdrag CD I bought at their show last October. But my CD purchases have declined from something like 5-10 a month to 5 or 10 a year...I made no CD purchases between Superdrag and DJ shadow, and only one (Sasha Airdrawndagger) since Shadow's.

Fuck the RIAA and the corporate music machine. Support live music and independant artists whenever possible.

I saw Ministry, Sepultura, & Helmet years ago in an indoor soccer arena. Heaviest, loudest show I've ever seen (of which there are many contenders). I sat in the bleachers tripped out watching the entire soccer 'field' become one big pit to the wall of sinister sound. Intense.

I just received (3) Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan cd's via an Ebay transaction. I got a good deal, not his best work, but he is still my favorite vocalist. I doubt he has much of anything owned by the RIAA. I'm sure not many people in the aforementioned mosh pit have heard of him.

NFAK pics attached:

[Cyberpukish]

i still buy cds once in a while i think the last one i bought was a few months back and i love to synthpop industrial and idm stuff... i figure they arent with huge record labels so why not support them ... and of course i recently bought vinyls for wall deco heheh i hang them up ....

[rainbowdemon]

Bought Ken Hensley's "Proud Words On A Dusty Shelf" abuot a year ago. Just because it's very hard to find this online. I will NOT buy any more until the RIAA collapses (and it will)!!! Until that happens:finger 'em!!

[Winphuk]

I have just decided to start buying CDs again. I am going to rip them and zip them into .rar files and share them as complete CDs. How do you like them apples?

[Apex8199]

my last purchased cd was the Gone In 60 Seconds soundtrack in 2000. a couple months later i got broadband and a 12x cd burner. now i only purchase blank cd's.

[triniti]

2 months, I purchased 2 DJ Baby Anne cd's. Because sometimes I just want the cd!!!!

[TC75580]

I just received Aphex Twin's 26 Mixes For Cash today in the mail.

Next few cds I will order will be:

My Bloody Valentine: Loveless
Husker Du: New Day Rising
Prefuse 73: One Word Extinguisher
The Pixies: Doolittle

[DETROIT]

I purchased one hundres cdrs last week. Last Cd purchased about about 15 years ago (2 live crew):hole

[ThePillarOfAutumn]

Retail or Not ? muhahahhaa - never none of the above - only my mom buys cds - i just borrow them from friends - for a while. they can buy them for me. um dam coasters.

[Tremaine]

2 weeks ago was the last time i bought a cd.

[Undermind]

this thread is timeless, HAHA

[RuntimeError]

the last time i "bought" a cd was with a gift card :bk :bk :bk

[Ken17625]

Last 2 CD purchases were on eBay.

That was 4 months ago.

[TipYourBartender]

<---------I bought this CD a week ago. Worth all the 5 bucks I paid for it. Thank god Coconuts buys used CD's.

[Caitlyn Marble]

Cat Power - You Are Free
Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Fever To Tell
Radiohead - Hail to The Thief
Super Furry Animals - Rings Around The World

all the week of the 20th. I think. can't remember how long ago that was.

Its ok. its got some really good moments, (Date with the night, Pin, Y-Control, Tick, Maps, Modern Romance) but some of the other songs are filler type. (no no no, black tongue)
It had enough good on it to make me buy it, and the fillers may grow on you but its a toss up album really.

If you want something really good (in that garage genre), with tons of energy, but no filler, I recommend the Libertines. Took a few listens for me to really absorb it.

[rainbowdemon]

Well, because I'm not buying cd's any more I thought it would be a good idea to back up the ones I already have. Just to protect the originals. But I must be doing something wrong. No matter what I do, they keep ending up in something called "my shared folder". Darn!!!! LOL:fire

[a97441]

I'm on the biggest mission right now to buy deleted and hard to find CDs from second hand stores for like $8 or whatever, and it's so satisfying to get a CD then look it up on ebay and its going for $50. Just bought Dashboard Prophets album for $20 and Human Waste Project for $15 of some australian mail order cos you physically cant get them around here anymore. (both deleted in early nineties)

[Spinecast]

I usually buy an average of 5 - 10 a month.

[simian]

Since about summer of 1999 I have purchased 1 CD. It was The Beta Band's self-tiled CD. That was Sometime in 2000.

Before Napster I used to buy atleast 10 CDs a month.

Now it's just spindles of 50 or 100 blanks. And I leave all my music in mp3 format. 1 album per CD just seems so inefficient now.
I'm In the process of replacing all my cd player with mp3 players. My DVD player already plays them. Now I just need an mp3 discman and mp3 boombox. As for the car stereo, I'll just use the discman with a cassette adapter. Good stereos just seem to get stolen too easy in this town.

[Trevize]

The last cd i bought was a week ago and it was Kenna A new Sacred Cow.

[Kevin06906]

THe last cd i bought was last year i think, it was the new Korn Untouchables CD. It's good.

[12345678910]

I've never bought a CD in my life. I've had other people buy them for me ( birthday, Christmas ), but I have never bought one with my money.

Lata,

[crackerjacker]

hmm
i freakin hate cds now
lmao
unless of course i am burning my own music :)

I hate to be subjected to one artist on a cd, i like to mix it up a bit.
but i have brought countless cds.
i dont remember last time though and it wasnt far off .

*cough*

[Krypt0]

Retail music cd's??? What?? Didn’t know they still sold those things....

hmm.. Must have been at least 5 years ago from my last purchase... no clue what it was though.

[shawners]

i only buy greatest hits and its to fill my columbia membership, i bought phil collins greatest hits for my wife, they really dont have anything in the book i dont already have on my PC=) AS far as the RIAA is concerned, i only share copywritten stuff to prevent further money going to the pigopolist.

[Lehk]

my shipment of Nightwish CD's came in today :)

Angels fall first,
wishmaster,
and oceanborn.

NONE are RIAA CD's...
neither are the other two i just ordered tonight
Blind guardian: Nightfall in Middle-Earth
Rhapsody :Emerald Sword

I am deliberately buying MORE CD's this summer... just NONE from the RIAA (Raping Individuals And Artists)

[yzarc140]

AFI -Sing The Sorrow

[billafu]

I couldn't find a good copy of "Soft" by Second Coming on a P2P, so I bought a copy of the cd from someone at Amazon.com for less than a dollar. Of course, with shipping it came to more, maybe $4.00 total. I thought that was a reasonable price. And, while Mercury Records is an RIAA member, I don't believe they made any money from this sale. At least I hope they did not.

[REDO]

The last CD's that I purchased were Breaking Benjamin - Saturate and Deftones - Self Titled Both are very good CD's.

You're forgiven this time don't ever do it again. ;-)

[Iacchus]

the only cds bought here are imports from overseas independant labels ( serpent house etc...) usually, these songs aren't easily found at a high eneough bitrate over p2p, they just arent popular eneough. its been maybe two years since i bought a new cd ( that want blank). if all cd prices drop to seven bucks or so, well then maybe ill find a little more money in my budget, you know?

[lion7718]

The last CD I bought was:

[matstao]

My last purchase was "Sigur 1/Sigur 9 (CD & DVD)". It has 4 Sigur Ros audio tracks, which are good, but not my favorites by them. The reason I bought it though was the included DVD, which has 3 high quality videos. (the first of which is beautiful, though it's hard to tell whether you should be sad or happy). Another bonus was the $8.98 price tag.

I'm sure I could have eventually found all these files somewhere for free, but I don't mind spending some money on music. I guess I felt like rewarding a good band that seems to be trying to give me my money's worth at the record store.

album cover attached...

edit: just discovered that Sigur Ros is not affiliated with the RIAA. a nice bonus for my $$.

[rctempire]

My last cd buy was
Bonkers X

its amazin if you like hardcore dance choons really

Bounce Bounce Bounce

This is an awesome thread. A few banned people, a few long lost users, a few regulars from the beginning.

The last CD I bought was.. err... well, besides blanks, I don't even remember. I know it has been quite some time.

Its kind of like thinking of that movie you saw last week. The name faded out as quickly as money dwindled from your bank account from that movie going experience.
The last cd i bought was a greatest hits cd of Phil collins, cause i love all his work and never owned one cd from him. So i bought it and gave it to my wife, in later i gave it to a few uploaders on mirc.. The joy of giving, and giving, and giving some more.
Save the economy, and do away with plastic purchases.

As everyone always says... much better to give than receive, you're very noble shawners, and I hope I run across some of your Phil as well. :wings

exactly, I buy CD's sometimes....., but I make sure I rip them and upload them. Somebodys got to buy them, or there would be no content.

Type O Negative - Life is Killing Me
Fear Factory - Hatefiles
Black Label Society - The Blessed Hellride

They were the last bought, but I do not know if they were the last bought.

I was new to the uploading expierence and my pc had rio and it allowed me 50 free frips, so i ripped my duran duran, and depeche mode in 320kbs. And it wasnt the brightest thing cause my modem was a 56k. So now i got new pc, dsl, i transfered the drive that held my mp3s to my new pc. So now im able to share without people disconnecting from me cause it took them so long. Audiogalaxy satelite was the most i ever shared, i left that thing on night and day. GOt spam a bit.
My favorite song by phil collins was Just another day in paradise.

I just bought, Final Fantasy - Pray ... For you final fantasy fans, it is the best final fantasy music cd, next to the piano collections. I just bought final fantasy 9, the game, and love the piano music. Great game.

Time is speeding up so fast, Final fantasy 9 came out in 2000, and I just found the time this summer to play it.

Final Fanasy - Pray cd was warped, so I had to copy the audio tracks over to a cd-r to play the disc. never had that happen before.

Now there is some music I wouldn't mind downloading. I love most of the FF compositions. There are some amazing ones in X. I currently own 1-10 with the exception of 2 (I have the original NES) But i am looking to get FF Origins soon. IX was a great game, though I think I preferred VII, VIII, & X over it. The cinemas were badass. I just finished X about a month ago. Put about 124 hours into it. I think I finished IX with about 84 hours or so. Fun stuff.

In the past 2 years or so, I've only purchased a few used CDs. But the stuff I really want I can't find new OR used, so it's a moot point.

Yes, we think that music will be around for a long time, in reality has a short shelf life. Naptster was best for finding those hard to find lost material.

Some of the FF music cd's are not a good buy. On a sad note, Squaresoft is no longer, they merged with another company enix after sony gave square 80 million to keep them operating.

If you look at how many titles square released over the 1990's, with each game taking 40+ hours, where is the time to play this stuff?

If you look at the American market 30% and the international market 70%, there is about 2x times more great material that thanks to technology we have access to. This new access will depress sales of the hollywood machine.

I still listen to rock and roll, but thanks to globalization, I have other choices, and those choices are depressing sales for the machine.

I do not own a psx2, so I have not tried the newer games, FF7 was the best story and amazing when it first came out, never played FF8, just this year played FF9, the best graphics of all of the FF series, great ending... but after FF7, some repetition in the game. It does have many references to other square games, sort of a tribute. :)
