Here we are again with a new poll. :) This week, we're asking what type of digital music service you use, if you even use one at all. While iTunes, Napster, and MSN Music are the top 3 providers; there are a ton of others out there.

Though, there are some people, like me who still prefer to go out and purchase the actually CD.

If you use more than one service, pick the one you use most. ;)

You should know better than to ask that. :angry:

Hence the reason the question was asked, "How do you purchase music".

After the Riaa started sueing people i have not purchased any music period. I dont download either. If they want to get greedy so be it. When CD's came out the price was supposed to drop drastically as the technology was accepted. :foldon:

I used to use eMusic....

I liked the obsucre music they had.... but it was TOO obscure...
and they changed their pricing plan....
so I dumped it.....

haven't bought music in a while ( and before someone comments..I haven't downloaded any either! (i'm too old and paranoid!))

I buy CD's from amazon.com usually... years ago I downloaded from Kazaa but i got so many virus attacks I did a reformat and never used any of those "free" services again. You just cant beat the quality of a brand new CD.. I might try iTunes one of these days if I get an iPod. ;)
