    Simple question, which do you prefer? Actual CD's or downloading albums from Itunes?

    I personally prefer having the real CD =D What do you think?

    Weeell...I love having a CD. It's nice to have something physical. You get liner notes, and it's just generally nice.

    But downloading is so much quicker.

    And if you buy a CD, you usually have to buy a whole album. I have loads of random songs in my library, just from various artists I like but not every song...because sometimes it's just that song.

    And I don't usually play my CDs...Although I have a walkman, because I'm cool.

    Anyway...It's pretty 50/50...

    I think legal downloading is useless. Just a piece of data, not something to hold in your hands, not very valuable for me. Downloading is easy. But illegal downloading is very risky in the USA so I understand why iTunes is so populair (but protected music files are damn annoying). Glad I don't live in the USA.

    I like CDs and vinyls, and buying one feels good. But it costs money and tbh the internet is a gold mine.

    Downloading is much easier but buying music is really important. CDs!

    I prefer CDs and vinyls.

    I believe that owning a CD or a vinyl shows that you really care about an artist and that you genuinly like him/her/them. Buying an MP3 is like saying:"Oh, I like this song, though I have no idea who or what the band/artist is." Sort of like how Justice got huge with 'We Are Your Friends' and "D.A.N.C.E." - Many were expecting this sort of poppy, innocent sound, but when they bought their album, what they got was some crunchy electro-beats and whatnot.

    Also I don't like MP3s because my computer has broken down a gazillion times, and each time I've lost all my MP3 files, so CD's and vinyls works as a kind of back-up.

    VINYL.

    CD's suck. :< Downloading is good when the artist can't release it as anything else.

    I do like to buy CDs, but there are a lot of artists whose songs aren't available to purchase here.

    The only music I've ever downloaded was Deadmau5... Simply because it wasn't on disc
