lol r u for real dude? haha
Im against downloading so I stole it from a store
Got the swedish edition. One of the greatest heavy rock albums I have heard!
It's topics like these that make me wish it was still like the late 80s to mid 90s when you couldn't just go download stuff for free. People like me who wanted to hear new music had to do actual research, read magazines, listen to underground radio stations, listen to sampler CDs, and go to CD stores to find new interesting bands. It wasn't all just a free click away.
The best "free" music some cheapsake could get were free sampler CDs or cassette tape dubs from friends who owned the CD. Now we have all these losers downloading music without spending a dime on it and acting like they're real music fans.![]()
I wouldn't be too sure about this. I think last time there were some who made it clear, that they *have* the album but won't buy it...i think no one would even dare to say that they have only downloaded it from isohunt.com or whatsoever and didnt or wont buy it.![]()
Those were the daysIt was a different atmosphere in the mid 90's, I got into metal by researching but also relied on "free" sources like college radio, samplers, mixed tapes, etc... and i bought tons of cd's and spent a lot of money
You're looking at this the wrong way, sure the internet is an easier tool but it also has the potental to reach more listeners...I wouldnt call people who download stuff "not real music fans" these are the same people that might buy merchandise or go to their shows, or even spread the message by word of mouth
I pre-ordered the swedish edition from burningshed and refrained from downloading it before I got my original copy... in the end it made me hate fuckin' Royal Mail even more (and here I thought that wouldn't be possible anymore)... Why do they have to strike right around the release date?! -.-
