How do you guys buy music now? Do you still buy CD's? Or do you just download? Or are you still doing a mix of the two?
I initially did iTunes when it came out...after buyin about 10 songs I realized I'll forever be stuck with them so I tried Sony Connect which was more consumer friendly (you can always re-download all the songs you purchased) but ultimately thier software was too bugy and their collection was thin. After toying with buying digitial I went back to buying music the old fashion way, I go to the store (Fry's or Target), buy what I like and then rip it into ogg format.
