what do you mean rip from here?
You completely missed my follow up post Sicy. I thought "lossless" was a song like Winter. Yeah I'm not the smartest when it comes to the technical computer stuff
Whats wrong with the record industry is that they are seemingly unwilling to change with the times, thats just bad business, and that could be there downfall.
buy the album you tight asses
You guys are exactly what is wrong with the music industry.
The 10 dollars to buy the album will break their bank account.
If you cant afford 10 dollars you shouldnt be on the Internet at all.
Downloading an album is fine to listen to it a few times to see if you like it but if it is continiously listened to the artist should be paid for that album.
Yeah there are people on others sites I visit asking 'ooh what's it like??" and these people use computers! they remind me of the people who ask where a website is and how did one find that site, picture etc ....GOOGLE!!
The downside of a lossless one made high profile is the freeloaders then don't need a reason to buy the album as they can make their own. Granted a small % but one nonetheless that chips away at sales perhaps..
you say "I'm all about downloading to see if you want to buy an album "
exactly what i'm doing, and if i listen to the lossless and it still sounds like shit to me then i def. will not buy. i might not but it anyway.
and to your other points, I dont want to pay for them and find out in 4 days, i prefer to have them now for free. Also for me downloading is faster than ripping.
I totally agree with you.What's the problem with some of us downloading the lossless files? I already paid for the getmusic track, preordered on iTunes to get the bonus track and preordered the box and it will take longer to arrive to my home since I'm importing it (it is not available in my country). So what if I want to have the best quality version right now? I am already spending more than 150 on this album (importing the box isn't cheap) so don't tell me I am stealing anything
