Who bought the LEAST amount of CD's this year?
I have scoured my brain and cannot think of one single CD I bought in 2002. That's bizarre considering my collection is over 2,000 CD's... well, maybe that is why. I have too much already.
When I had a cable modem I downloaded a ton of Mp3's, but haven't burned them. And more often than not, I gotta spend my money on other things.
My New Year's resolution is to buy one CD next year! (used of course)

DVD Talk Limited Edition
Oh, I am definitely a candidate. Lack of funds, and lack of 'must have' releases.
Strokes (disc. to 8.99 with bonus DVD), Trail of Dead, Peter Gabriel, Tom Waits, Pere Ubu, and a Pink Dots CD is all I bought going from memory.
The damn things cost too much for too little value. The music industry (at least the majors) deserve their troubles.

It seems like each year I buy less cds than the last.
Out of the handful of cds I bought this year, there are only two that I really like and still listen to:
Gomez: In Our Gun
and
Queens of the Stone Age: S.F.T.D.

Zero from me....I won David Bowie's 'Heathen' from his site, and meant to pick up Christian Death's 'Born Again Anti-Christian', but Best Buy don't carry it. I asked for it for Christmas, if I don't get it I'll order from DDCD--but after the new year so I still have none purchased this year ; 0.
And yeah, I'm all for an industry making money, but you gotta admit, they are shooting themselves in the foot. 99% of everything sounds like everything else [to this old man, anyway], and the rest of it is impossible to find or hear on the radio. Thank whomever for the Internet, with streaming samples, promo mp3's, ordering virtually anything....And to hell with H Rosen and her fascist crowd. [Lars: Fans--you're thieves! Well, guess what--not a fan anymore.]
And I heard some big commercial on the radio today--'How many clicks does it take before someone becomes a thief? *pause* One...Please, don't download music....From your friends at Clear Channel.'
Um, yeah.
