I don't download a lot of music, but on my phone I hooked it up to my computer and loaded some of the music that I had on the computer where I had burned copies of CD's.

I've only paid to actually download music; not to stream it as more sites are turning to. I've been a member of E-Music for many years. At first they were mostly indy artists and off-genre (not any of the mainstream genres, but more like folk, Celtic, etc.), but now they are getting more mainstream artists as well. When I had originally signed up, I was really interested in Celtic music, so it was an excellent deal, but as they've added more of the mainstream artists, the cost of their songs have also increased too. Now if there is a particular song that I want, I'm more apt to check out Amazon.

No, I do not download music, you should buy it then download it.

Why is it better to buy it from a store rather than buy it online and download it? If I have to go to a store, I can only get a CD which I then have to bring home to rip to MP3s that I can then play on my MP3 player, whereas buying and downloading the music online I don't have to go through having to rip the music first; just download it and put it on my player directly. Unless you are talking about pirating and downloading the music, in which case I agree.

I stopped downloading music and just use my data to listen to music on youtube when I'm on the go. In the past I used Youtube converters to download mp3s.  :angel11:

Only when i have itunes gift cards I cashed out for.  I use another site to save up points and to redeem for a CD on occasion.  But that's it.

I do have an Itunes account but I mostly use YouTube and Spotify and create playlists.  Some artists, only my very favorite ones, do I actually go out and buy the CD for.  So no.  I don't pay to download music.

Well, I listen to music for free, mostly on youtube. But say I really like a song I'll pay to download it either off of Amazon or iTunes to support the artist. I have an iPod so everything gets loaded onto there.

No, I do not pay to download music.  We have an extensive CD collection that I will download off if I want to save a song on my computer.

No. I download mp3 files from 4shared or convert musical YouTube videos to mp3 files and add them to my iPod. It saves me a lot of money!

I usually go to YouTube if I want to listen to music.  If it's something exceptional I am looking for then I will buy what I need.

I don't pay to download music. I use to get it free on Blubster, but I think that they got caught because they are no longer around. If there is an album that I really like, then I will use Apple. :monkey:

If I like the album I buy the cd. If I kind of like it then I download it off You Tube. I have too many ok albums or ones that I don't listen too sitting around.
