I don't buy many cds...can't save up the money or theres really no need to...

I have never burnt one before because it takes a long time and when it stuffs up then you have to start again.

if i like a band/artist and know a lot of the songs on the album will be good then i'll buy it.. (plus the CD player in my car wont play burnt CDs)
if it's only one or two songs i like then i'll just get them off the net :)

I feel really bad when i burn/download songs from the internet. If i know the artist well enough and if i know whether the songs are good on the album - then i have no trouble buying a CD.

I use to download, but then started buying and copying CD's to my computer to make my individual CD's, or borrow other peoples CDs and burn them.

Now, I have an mp3 player, and because it doesn't support WMA files, I tend to just download...

that could be true about a lot of the american pop singers and crap but i think what is being referred to is local indie artists

I burn my fair share of CDs, but but plenty as well. I find I only really listen to those that I have bought, it's just doesn't seem the same otherwise! Also, if I burn a CD then find I really like it upon listening to it, I'll go out and buy it anyway.
