I'm very easy to please when it comes to music.

I love country, rock, rap, synthpop, Amy Winehouse, bluegreass, dark cabaret....etc.

Name it, I like (save a few exceptions).

I like music that is pleasant.  I do not like Goingjockey because they are annoying due to their vocals (take away most of the singing, and Angry Sissy Pies  would have been four stars).

Now with Magma, I've not heard them because they are so goddamned expensive.  I'm not shelling out 20 bucks for a CD.  Sorry. 

If you're not against mp3 downloads, a lot of Magma albums are available on AmazonMP3 for reasonable prices.  Unfortunately, based on various reviews of albums, parts of the tracks are missing on some albums (for example, the sole reviewer states that only 6 minutes of K.A. Pt. III are actually downloaded).


Yeah, I don't want to take chances like that.  I want full albums for my money. 

You could always pay for the download and then download it again from a significantly less legal place.

No, because I didn't notice it until a long time after my subscription with them was up.  Plus, other than the album in question (Concert 1976: Opera de Reims) everything else was fine.  I'm missing 10 minutes of the performance of MDK from that album though. Angry

That's awful, but it would be a righteous thing to repair that with means of your own Tongue

At least you can justify to a certain extent, but yes, it is bad, but if you get a carton of eggs and one is broke, would you replace it with another?

You should feel honored that you are good enough to be pirated, even if they are stealing from you.

Well, I'm sure all those who downloaded your album will buy your next one, especially if you release it on CD, and will attend concerts. That's how it works... right? Tongue
