| Here's the skinny. I can either:
A) afford internet usage for a month on a twelve month contract, unlimited cap, slow-ish speeds. Say 36kbs per second download speed(is that slow, how long does it take ya'll to dl an album) or,,
B) buy between 3 - 4 albums per month. Taking into account shipping and all that tax bullshit.
What are your thoughts, I do have the net at work and on my berry, but neither really satisfy.
Again I'll say it, second world bullshit.
Oh, an could one o ya'll admin turn this shit into a poll, aprreesh

Anyway, internet >>>> albums. You can DL albums, and the internet is too valuable a resource to not have. |

if your buying 4 albums a month and assuming they cost at least 7 bucks each + shipping thats 10...so if you spend $40 on albums that means you should EASILY be able to get high speed internet...if not youre really getting ripped off and need to change companies | |

| Internet all day. Like you already stated, you can start a download, leave for work or whatever and it'll be done when you return. It'll be slow and tedious, but it'll definitely work... | |

Nice hey? Next problem is where to save all this shit, my itunes library temp file can't even fit, bitch ass windows updates clogging my machine. There's still a part o me that feels internet is a man made need, I survive just fine without it at the mo. And if it meant that I could afford physical copies of what I'd be downloading, just on a smaller scale, in a sense that is the wiser choice? | |

| But why??? Like I get the hyperbole, but what is it about the internet that grips you so much? Porn was cool an all, but other than that plus downloading music, I never really used it for anything else. | |

Most of them are plug and play, so all you have to do is connect the USB and you're good. Downloading can serve several purposes. One of them is the fact that you can sample the music you want to buy without sacrificing any cheddar. You can have every album you want and then just buy the physicals when cash flow permits. I use it to keep from getting burned by wackness. That also helps financially because it will keep you from purchasing wackness that you may have otherwised purchased. | |

I feel ya( ) thing is, I already "own" bout 500 albums, by that I mean shit I've downloaded from when I stayed at my folks' crib. So I already have a good grip on whats wack and what's not. As for new stuff, that's what I got you guys for! (Again, ) | |

| Uh I'd say internet because it has more than one function - downloading all kinds of things, looking at this site, communicating etc. | |
