he he. did you bleach it after?! and was there enough bleach?
but seriously though, i wouldn't pay for digital release. i am used to having my music on a physical, actual medium - so that it does feel like an art rather than mass-produced God knows what. No offense to anyone...
P.S> just saw gaga on your signature, it killed my day...

12%
The rest being my own productions, promos, demos, gifts, unauthorized recordings and super unethical downloading of high quality full-on.

150 cd's of trance & about 60 cd's of chillout/ambient & 70 drum n' bass & 45 heavy metal current count, all paid for & 0% illegal pirate copies or downloads 
It was like 4 times that but did a big clear out this year of stuff never being listened to.
I hate you, you hate me, we are all so hap hap happy! |

stop demanding plastic my friend, it will just be waste at the end. No need for it anymore.

nice strategy... i like djing aswell and ive made some sets here on my island.. but no original cds.... no stores here sell them, so i must buy them with credit card and i only have money to eat at school xDD
but yeah, one of my life plans is to make a big CD trance collection )
I want a spare brain.... or 2. |

0%
i spend all my money on deco, sound gear, a truck and various other things i need to make parties happen.
that'll change now that i have everything i need, but ya know..... money..... always tight.....
that being said, when i have tracks worth putting out, they'll be free releases. |

IDK how much of my collection is paid for, but I only buy digital directly from artists. I'd say less than 15% of my total library.
I think CDs are worthless piles of junk that make labels/artists lose money and hurt our environment.
All my 'releases' will always be free as well. Paywalls just restrict people from hearing your music, and if you're not making a living on it anyways...I just don't see the point.

98% of the music is paid for. 2% is for music from friends that I know is illegally downloaded and I can't pay the artist directly. (example a compilation from 1999 of mostly artists not around anymore).
It comes down to appreciation.
I'm so picky about music, when I find an artist I like, I'm going to find a way to pay him to show my appreciation.
Good music is worth it. And that's the only kind of music I care to have.
