Why do you buy used CD\'s?
In this modern era of all music being free if you spend the time on the web, why do people still buy used CDs? I spend a decent chunk of change buying new stuff from artists that I want to support. But the artists get none of my money from a used CD purchase.
The only reason I could see for logically buying used CD's is if you are trying to help out the person or store selling them. Other than that, seems silly.

You should support the local business and local musician buy purchasing new music. Besides, isn't buying a used CD pretty much the same idea as downloading as far as the artist is concerned? They are not getting a cut.

Why should I be forced to keep something I no longer want? (sounds like marriage) And why should I be forced to only buy a product in new condition? [/ QUOTE ] What? Go ahead and sell your CDs if you want. I just don't get why people buy them. You don't have to buy only new things. I'm just saying that if you are not going to buy it new, I see no logical reason to not download it.

Re: Why do you buy used CD\'s?
I use iTunes because everytime I go to one of those cheap ass sites for free music I get some kind of virus on my CPU. Also, I don't know of any good free sites.
Do Educate if you will, Indy
