I do buy CD's only (unless I have to get it on digital) but as we know, we'll be the holdouts...digital is the future and ultimately it's best for everyone

Henry, I was calling Marco a hypocrite for his comment about never buying from Wayside again.

I interpreted "anymore" to mean this order (because he wanted to buy Cosmogramma right now), not never again.

No.

Oh here goes this argument again.

Why is buying digitally stupid? Digital makes it much easier for bands to make money.

And you are the one hating: I don't care if people prefer CDs for whatever reason.

~~DAT FLANK~~

As Stephen said, it's expensive everywhere. I was told its because they are only sold in France, thus we need to import it? Would make sense I guess. They can't have much money...when Magma played in NYC they actually asked people attending the show for all the equipment they needed! LOL

If Vander played my drum set I'd die a little bit, that'd be so awesome

long story short some people from the shred escaped and wreaked havoc in other areas of the forum, which pissed off the admins.

I like how you say "escaped" like the Shred is a prison that we've been locked in...

...wait... Shocked

You weren't told the Shred was actually the PA insane asylum?

I did name my shred room the asylum.

Yeah poor guy just could not accept the truth, funny thing is I bet some people thought us shredders were being "mean" again even though we did only tell him the facts, and if he got in trouble it could even maybe end up holding PA responsible.

$500?

Wow.

I should have bought multiple copies.

Henry, I was calling Marco a hypocrite for his comment about never buying from Wayside again.

Magma is expensive everywhere, and hard to find in stores. Although I DID find two of their albums on vinyl in one of the stores here, which kind of blew my mind. I bought one, I'm hoping to go back someday and buy the other (and at the same time hope it's gone, because it means someone else in this city loves this crazy music LOL

)

The last album I bought in a shop was VdGG's last album.

HMV and Virgin (before they went tits up) failed to see the future of Digital downloads and that's why they've failed so much.

Although I do wish people weren't so stupid and actually did buy vinyl and CDs. I do have a lot of Digital music but I much prefer a physical product.

Oh here goes this argument again.

No, I have absolutely no idea what you meant. If I did, I wouldn't have asked.

James wrote:

Buy the Magma boxset.

Actually, don't, it's probably even more expensive now than when it came out. It was good value though when it did first get released.

It was a good value, but it stopped being economical immediately after it went out of print.
