I've been using spotify a lot recently, but that's pretty much to sample a record or band before deciding whether to buy or not.
There's got to be more to it than that, because I regularly clear the cache on all three computers that my wife and I use to access our Amazon account, and have never had issues there. I've certainly done it more than 8 times and have had no issue. |

Amazon and iTunes digital only for me

Re: How do you buy your music?
CD. I prefer ripping it myself. If I can't purchase in store (which, with some of the stuff I listen to is becoming more frequent), then I'll download it digitally (iTunes preferably).
If I get burnt out of what I have on my iPod I'll flip on Pandora. |
Re: How do you buy your music?
I mostly buy CDs, but use MP3s in certain situations. With CDs, it's only for bands where I really want a physical copy for the higher quality or bonus extras. MP3s are generally from Amazon, when the cost is $5, or from band sanctioned downloads. Bandcamp has started getting some traffic from me, so hopefully they continue to improve their site. Pandora if I'm feeling lazy, and Spotify if I want to try something before buying.

There wasn't - that is EXACTLY what happened to me. And the funny part?....they recently (I'm talking just about a week and half ago) re-did their policies for devices and cloud payer.

Re: How do you buy your music?
Between Spotify and Amazon, I see no need for physical CDs anymore. The only time I get them is if they're part of some bigger set, like the Bowie Station to Station reissue.
I have put together quite a nice vinly collection, and I add a few records in from time to time. |
Re: How do you buy your music?
I pay for Rdio. I stream on my phone in my car and at the office and on my Roku or various tablets at home. I supplement the few artists not on Rdio by caching my own MP3s on Google Music (example: Led Zeppelin, Beatles, AC/DC) but Rdio has almost everything.
I have about 3,000 CDs upstairs gathering dust. Cloud + subscription is the way to go. I used to use ZunePass, which is probably the best of all the streaming services. The issue is that I don't have a Windows Phone handset. Sidenote: last CD I bought was Mastodon's "Leviathan", when it came out. I understand buying vinyl but paying retail for CDs makes absolutely no sense to me. |
Re: How do you buy your music?
Prefer vinyl, I'll buy CD's if it's the only way or if it's a lot cheaper. Digital is the absolute last choice (unless you count tapes that are coming back for some reason), I avoid that at all costs.
