Is real that people who listen to prog music buy more original albums than other who listen to rap or pop?why? I think yes because we realy love our music and so we respect our musicians!
What do you think? ------------- Raise your sword mighty warrior |

Well, i download as much as i can, because i only get $6.50 an hour. However, there are times that I absolutely HAVE to buy the album. Such as, King Crimson....Mr. Fripp owns his own label, and he loses a lot of money if I don't buy his stuff. So, i've purchased all the king crimson I have. Also, if there is an album that i feel is a must, such as Selling england by the pound, the lamb, or Close to the Edge, and it will keep my happy for a long time, i'll buy it. I never buy albums on a whim. I download as much as possible. However if i had a higher paying job, i'd buy it all.....i feel more connected with the music if i actually have the cd. |

Fans of prog, jazz or classical music buy more albums than fans of chart music. That's simply because chart music is song oriented. There's even an entire genre of "light-weight prog" rock: AOR, which means album oriented rock. I'd even go one step further and say that chart oriented people are not really interested in the music, but in the stars, and in the culture surrounding them. So when song X is cool, people want to show that they're also listening to it and might buy the single or even the album, but once some other star replaces the previous, they move on. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/release-polls/pa" rel="nofollow - Release Polls Listened to:

I buy nearly all of my music. LPs and CDs. I like to feel
the warm glow of commerce. It's also nice to have the liner
notes, LP sleeves, something you can hold onto. The only times I download music is if I want to sample it, or I already have it on another medium (such as a cassette tape). A few examples of albums I've downloaded to try and later bought are: Supertramp - Crime of the Century and Breakfast in America Miles Davis - Kind of Blue Alex Keack - For Surfers Only (Rare LP) Rush - 2112 Rush - Signals (Own on tape) Michael Jackson - Thriller (Own on tape) I've also downloaded a few songs from artists then went on to buy albums or compilations, a few examples include (Even legally through samples at Prog Archives): Pink Floyd Simon & Garfunkel James Taylor Alice in Chains Or ones that I've ripped from CDs I borrowed: King Crimson - ITCOTCK Dream Theater - Images and Words, Scenes from a Memory (Plan to buy both) Downloading is a great way to sample new music, I like to buy the albums if I enjoy them though. I wouldn't have discovered black and death metal if I hadn't downloaded albums to sample. (Hoping to buy something by Burzum if I can find it, possibly their rarities disk I saw at CD Plus, though it's quite expensive). |
