Like me. Because honestly, for me to buy an album from every artist that I were to pirate at the rate that I do pirate, I would be pretty, pretty, pretty far in debt.  Not fair? Yeah. But I can not unfortunately buy a record from every artist ever, so I go with whatever's the most appealing.

Exactly! Why pay $15-$20 for 1 song? Now if every song where a single and cheap and the consumer were allowed to hear a song once then decide to purchase, that would be amazing, but imposible, and I know that.

I know people want to be paid, but consumers want to be entertained for their money. I have bought more CDs in the past month than I have in a year because I've heard a few songs from an album and liked them. I just bought 2 from Thornbird, a band from California, because they played at my university. I liked a few of their songs so I bought 'em.

Impossible how?  iTunes does one half of this already, and streaming radio can do the second.

So do what I've done. Stop downloading. Start buying things you already own. And then only buy new stuff.
