10 albums a year? I'd bet there are people here who buy 10 albums a week, or at least 10 a month..hehe

i still gotta get the rest of the Syx albums only one i have so far is the odyssey i'm too broke to buy another yet.. and utopia doesnt have the best selection. ..so im lucky if i can buy maybe 3 albums a year at $30-$40 a pop. In the states theyre alot cheaper arent they?

 

[The Yngster]

I couldn't imagine paying 40 bucks for a cd.

[SilentRealm]

I paid $42.95 for Evanescence..ugh!! and it wasnt even very good, the mixes i had dled were better.
How much is the Star One set?? Because I really want to get that, but it seems like it would be expensive.

You should have someone in the states buy it and ship it to you.. it prolly would be cheaper. Im not sure how much the Star One set is (I work at a record store and we sold out and are gettin it in in a week), but That disc certianly kicks a ton of ass!!
