when i say i download something before you get all unimperssed take this into account.
i do spend over $80 per week most weeks on new music from shops!
and over her in new zealand our shops cater for eminem idiots and thats about it! we can very rarly find something unless its gone platnum everywhere else in the world.
third my downloading consists of maybe 3-4 hard to get songs A MONTH buddy!!! so if anyone would like to hold that against me fine but i think that compared to people who ONLY download and never buy music i am hardly an evil person. i must say that i dont like people who use crap like napster to get entire collections but i dont fall into that catagory.
sorry for the moan but im a decent person who belives pirating is wrong and i dont want to look like the people i am fully gainst.
see you and look forward to hearing other opinions

I could go into a long rant about downloading/piracy/theft (because that's what it is) but i won't bother today.
Instead i'll just say this.
Do you honestly think it's ok because you don't do it as much as other people?
That's fine then - this week i'll only steal from one shop instead of 3.

Arguably one of the best

Admittedly i used to download tracks, but that was when i was a wee nipper at school and didnt know it was wrong.
Nowadays i cant hack people that download all their tunes. One of my best m8s does (who posts on here once in a blue moon), hes got like 5 albums in the real, and a shit load of albums downloaded - all the bonkers, HTID's, HH's...
it does my nut in, and i abuse him all the time for doin it

Yeah when ever you mention Downloading tunez around MC_BoNe you can see him getting urge's to give u a slap... :P
I download... used to download pure (when i was into rap), dont really do it at all anymore, cant be arsed... no point now that im into hardcore as i only really listen to tape packs anyway and you cant download tape packs plus there well worth the £20(ish) IMO anyway!

i've never gone and downloaded tracks.
but i will admit that i've sent, recieved the odd tracks from mates now and again that i haven't heard. but this is like once every few months or so.
i'm not condoning that but what i'm saying is that one song is normally so i can just hear what the track is to see if i would want to buy it. i don't do it because its a tune that i am after.
besides. most tunes i've recieved anyway have also been of poor quality.
file transferring is wrong. i use it to see if i would like the song before i buy it but thats it.
 Honestly officer, it's for medicinal purposes! Just ask my doctor, he's right over there eating the curtains!

Hes probably slapin his moniter right now!
Im all agenst downloading tracks, i aint made of money, but i just think that having the original is a lot more satisfying. The only thing i do do, is borrow some tape packs, CD's ect. that im not sure about buying, off my m8 so i can decide which ones i wanna buy, but thats not stealing, thats just being a bit cheap!  (with the acception of Bonkers coz i always buy them)
Why oh why cant you just accept it,
why oh why cant you just accept it,
Im a raver not a f**king drug addict,
yeah thats right i know youll think ill realy like it,
Leave me alone it my life i think its,

torana989, Where abouts in New Zealand are you?
I'm in Wellington, and I get hardcore easily. Normally I go to real groovy, but I picked up Bonkers: The rezurrection (all those years ago now!) from THE WAREHOUSE of all places.
