I have >1000 songs on my iPod, and I'm still not done with all the artists I like. If I bought all my music, I'd be poor as hell >_< Besides, artists make a massive amount of money off of tours, so they really don't need the money from selling albums.

I would only buy songs if I can't find a good copy. Pretty much if you don't pay for music, it's illegal.

I don't because of the stupid DRM. I prefer Amazon.

[quote] Hoppesangon : Not that many I would think. That's hy it's such a huge accomplishment for an artists album to go platinum, even diamond, nowadays. [/quote] Doesn't your example show that their are more sales then you think? I don't think Itunes sales go towards those platinum ratings.

I do. It's wrong to steal. The temptation is greater to jailbreak your iPhone.

What I'm trying to say is that since theres so many people now that just get their music for free, it's even a bigger deal when an Artist's albums to go platinum since many people probably just got the album off torrent sites.
