    So... how do all you people get your music? XD; It can be either by just listening to the radio, watching music videos on TV, buying CDs, buying MP3's from online stores like iTunes, or... well... less legitimate ways. =P

    I don't have any music channels, so I end up listening to the radio a lot. When it comes to buying CDs, I rarely do that because they're so expensive (although I admit the price has really gone down over the last year). So... when I do buy them, I normally only buy the albums of Canadian bands or else I'll buy anime/game soundtracks since I like the inserts that come with them. I've only tried buying MP3's once since I got a $10 coupon from some promotion with my mobile provider. o_O I don't normally download tracks without paying anymore (even though that's legal in Canada xD) since I never downloaded something *to* download them with when my hard drive died. As a result, I've got very few mp3's on this thing. o.o;

    So how about everyone else? ^^;
     
    I use WinMX, I know its not legal but it gets the job done. I usually download a CD then buy a CD, just so I am at least paying for something.
     
    Download of course, it's illegal but everyone does it.
     
    Another thing to meantion I only download cause the CD is nowhere to be found...for example some Techno CDs and really old CDs. I know a store that sells any CD imaginable but they sometimes charge 2 to 3 times as much as they should sometimes going up to 35 dollars! Its an outrage...and its not like its easy to find the songs you wont illegaly either...sometimes no one has it so thats a pain too.

    I download media (p2p, legal, right?) by Ares, you know, a program. XD;
    I'm not sure if Ares' the best one, but It's enough for me.^_^ In the case of the CD's, I only obtain those ones that I really like, cause obviously it needs cash XD
    Also sometimes I see music videos on Yahoo L.A.U.N.C.H ~_^
     
    I download music and watch VH1 and MTV. And I buy CD's. XD
     
    I download them. It's legal here, but I'm not all to proud of the fact that I download. The majority of it is Game music, so it's not that bad, some of it I'd have to spend years on the Japanese Ebay to find the CDs. O_o Some of it is emulated too, so I can have it never end like in the game, a can't do that with a CD. Other times when it's not Game, it's just a single track. The one I'm most ashamed of is that I downloaded the entire CD to a Canadian band that I like.

    In my defence...I don't own a CD player.

    *wasn't going to post in here, but's it's Erica's thread so I'm bound to do so.*
     
    Well....XD Since I prefer NOT to buy them over Itunes, I look desperately for someone who has it on their computer XD; not that I need much music anyways XD
    I usually have the CD (I mean I only have 3 good CD's XD)
     
    I buy cds, listen to the radio. And download the music onto my phone via there internet connection. Which you have to pay for anyway. ?5.00 per song. I also buy dvds with music vids on because sometimes thats the only way to get them.

    I have a bunch of different waysin getting my music.I listen to it on the radio, burn CDs from friends, get CD's from my cousin, and online stores.So I basically do them all lol.Im a music freak!
     
    I listen to the radio a lot, I watch music videos too but all the stuff on free-to-air is mainstream -_-. I used to download a lot of music but now I mostly buy CDs... I have a bit more pocket money now and if I can support my favourite bands by buying CDs I will.
     
    *after waiting for the page to load* xD;

    I listen to my music on Yahoo's launch and the radio. xD; I only buy CDs if they're dirt cheap or on sale. >.>; I also try to 'borrow' mp3s from my cousins, who download it in Taiwan. xD
     
    I listen to the radio, or watch the music channels. I don't buy CDs, and my iPod has become broken beyond repair. This way it's free, and I can listen to new things, broadedn my horizons, and crap like that! XD
