Have you ever not bought a record because of the artists' criminal allegations/action
I started thinking about this when reading the political thread.
Do you find yourself thinking about Michael Jackson's allegued child molestation charges and hanging his baby from a balcony when deciding to buy his music or not? And do his actions and the allegations sway you not to buy his music?
What about musicians accused of rape/murder/drug dealing/etc.?
So, do all these factors influence whether you buy something of theirs or not? And if not, what action/allegation would be the turning point for you to stop buying the music?

I refuse to buy an R. Kelly CD until he stops peeing on people.
