Relinquished 01.01.14	what state
StJimmyRocks92 01.01.14	Ohio
anarchistfish 01.01.14	what does a 7% tax on free downloads work out to
Avagantamos 01.01.14	I haven't bought music from itunes since I was like 13
StJimmyRocks92 01.01.14	>implying im not 13
thumbcrusher 01.01.14	itunes might just take the hit themselves
MoosechriS 01.01.14	lol who actually buys music from itunes [2] digital purchases are rips offs anyways, most of the time i can get a phyisical copy of an album for the same price or less. If i want a digital copy of something to save me ripping it i'll usually be able to find it on a blog a somewhere.
StJimmyRocks92 01.01.14	"itunes might just take the hit themselves" Nope "most of the time i can get a phyisical copy of an album for the same price or less" Only cheap places around here to buy music are a couple used stores and I already bought all the good stuff. Otherwise best prices are from Best Buy.
thumbcrusher 01.01.14	have you tried amazon.com?
MoosechriS 01.01.14	i buy mostly online, amazon marketplace, ebay and discogs are where i buy almost everything. i have one record store near where i live which is actually pretty good but like yourself i have pretty much everything i want that they stock.
StJimmyRocks92 01.01.14	"have you tried amazon.com?" Still taxed.
anarchistfish 01.01.14	"Nope " do you know that for sure?
ExcentrifugalForz 01.01.14	washington state taxes amazon purchases at 8%
thumbcrusher 01.01.14	i meant amazon as a cheap place for buying CDs, it's usually pretty good for me for finding stuff at reasonable prices, though if you meant they were taxed as well then that's a bummer
StJimmyRocks92 01.01.14	"do you know that for sure?" Yeah we checked the billing statements "i meant amazon as a cheap place for buying CDs" Ohh, yeah afaik that's not taxed (yet) but the cases get at the very least cracked in our mail which annoys me but that's not the end of the world really.
Avagantamos 01.01.14	the other day I got 2 CDs from amazon for $5
DominionMM1 01.01.14	the $3.99 shipping price for each and every cd ordered tends to negate the price difference between amazon and the local store
MoosechriS 01.01.14	shit 3.99? in the uk it's just over a pound (around 60 cents) or if you select 2nd class postage it's free
ZippaThaRippa 01.01.14	iTunes? People still download music from iTunes? Is this 2007?
thumbcrusher 01.01.14	i think you went the wrong way moosey with your conversion but shit yeah that's weirdly expensive
MoosechriS 01.01.14	shit, yeah i just realised haha i obviously selected full retard there for a moment lol
DominionMM1 01.01.14	so if i have to spend an extra dollar for a cd at the local record store then I'll do it. plus I get points for every purchase at twist & shout and independent records so I can get free shit later on.
MoosechriS 01.01.14	Yeah the new record store near me does a vinyl club thing where you get a stamp for every 15 pounds you spend on vinyl, after 10 stamps you get a vinyl. Used my freebie last week to get the burzum/aske dlp. It sounds even better when it's free :-D
StJimmyRocks92 01.01.14	We don't have any local places to buy new music. Used to have one, but the owner was a bitch and they went out of business about two years ago. All I know of now is a used store about a half hour away that's local, a used place about 45 minutes away that's bigger and part of a chain, and then for new music all we have is Best Buy and Wal Mart. Local used place used to have a great selection but I bought all I liked and now it's mostly shitty pop and rap CDs, and they haven't been getting anyone selling stuff in a while. The chain used place is about an even amount of death metal and rap and then some pop and metalcore, but they are pretty expensive for used CDs. Our Best Buy shrank their CD selection to cary more shitty TV shows, and Wal Mart is Wal Mart so fuck them.
Relinquished 01.01.14	"It sounds even better when it's free :-D" they always do
ILJ 01.02.14	i can see buying CDs or LPs to support the artist and stuff but honestly buying digital music is fucking silly unless it's from bandcamp or something.
anarchistfish 01.02.14	music sounds better when I've paid for it :(
Trebor. 01.02.14	They're trying to get people to stop being dumb and prevent them from buying itunes music and magazines duh
NordicMindset 01.02.14	itunes doesn't have a magazine
Trebor. 01.02.14	who said they did
30secondstocydonia 01.02.14	@greenlinkinmuse itunes sells magazines though lol
eternium 01.02.14	Wah, iTunes is going to be treated like any other commodity, wah.
sniper 01.02.14	you should stfu and pay the sales tax
GnarlyShillelagh 01.02.14	Lol republicans Lol paying for music
Trebor. 01.02.14	"vote Republican for tax-free digital purchases" cuz this is the single most important thing to vote on Like those fucking rednecks that voted for Bush just for a 300 dollar tax rebate
ChuckyTruant 01.02.14	"Lol paying for music" Fuck you.
frigyourgenre 01.02.14	Pirate bay just keeps gettin better and better
GnarlyShillelagh 01.02.14	Chucky why would you ever pay for music on any format that isn't vinyl Even then supporting most record labels and third party shits like iTunes is like the worst thing you can do
conesmoke 01.02.14	yeah... because we all know artists get 100% if their vinyl profits... NOT! The best way to support is easily to buy merch, shirts etc.
ChuckyTruant 01.02.14	Bandcamp and shows you asshole
conesmoke 01.02.14	i was on your side here chuck but whatever ya turd burglar.
ChuckyTruant 01.02.14	That last post was @ shillelagh, duh
Trebor. 01.02.14	I can't believe this is a real account that has been around for 3 and a half years
Mookid 01.02.14	Try Amazon for shit's sake Yes, they might tax, but they are still considerably cheaper than other stores
conesmoke 01.02.14	Meh, conversation vectors can be confusing on the internet. ST Jimmy rocks treb!
Trebor. 01.02.14	why is this guy so afraid of taxes, does he hate public roads or something?
conesmoke 01.02.14	he's a squid, human taxes don't help squids.
StJimmyRocks92 01.02.14	lol, I was joking about the voting thing Treb. And yeah, Bandcamp is fucking great. oh, and he's a squid, human taxes don't help squids. [2]
