They have services set up like 10$ for unlimited music downloads or netflix where they send you copies of movies unlimited al month so even if you are willing to pay to watch and listen you don't have to buy the cd or dvd. Unless its a collectors edition with autographed stuff or a t shirt or some kind of bonus you couldn't download its not worth it.

I still buy things like cds, dvds, etc but I'm extra picky nowadays because of the easy accessibility.

Case in point, there are numerous dvds/blu rays/cds that I probably would've bought no doubt had it been like 5 years ago. Now, though, I buy pretty much only Blu Rays (unless it's something very obscure). I don't really buy CDs anymore. I bought the latest Fozzy one so I could have Jericho sign it, and every christmas I buy a christmas CD. That's pretty much it.

Also, I think a huge factor is getting older and my priorities are shifting. Not to either condone or condemn, but for me I have less time to sit around and play video games, for example. In turn, I'll buy fewer games, and have even less amounts of time to play them.

Newsgroups FTW!

I still use torrents here and there but for the most part I just use newsgroups now, theres like no risk involved and me and a few of my friends have had some close calls with comcast calling us and telling us not to download movies again (there were a specific few that were tracked by movie companies probably). So now its that, and I still buy CD's and DVD's if they are deserving of it, but mostly like box-sets, blu-ray's(don't own a blu-ray burner yet), and special editions.


Re: Does anybody still buy CDs and DVDs... - Phantom - 09-17-2010

Newsgroups? First time hearing that, please elaborate.


Re: Does anybody still buy CDs and DVDs... - sTr - 09-17-2010

a bootleggers best friend = peer block. it updates it's lists everyday of all govt, movie companies, anti-p2p groups, etc. it blocks the shit out of those fags, haven't gotten one warning on my internet connection since ! started using it.

Get that shit: http://www.peerblock.com/


Re: Does anybody still buy CDs and DVDs... - N-Do - 09-21-2010

^ Props, good info right there.


As for newsgroups, they are paysites that give you directdownload links for everything you need, from their servers. The one me and my friend are using is like 10$ a month, not bad for everything we are getting and the speeds are awesome, it will basically go as fast as your internet will download, all annonymous so no one knows what your downloading anyway.

add it, then call to cancel it. then keep saying no to all their discounts and you will get an awesome fucking price. i can't tell you what it is...but that's my advice.

Re: Does anybody still buy CDs and DVDs... - juggalogigolo - 07-10-2012

how long should you wait between the time you add it and the time you call to cancel


Re: Does anybody still buy CDs and DVDs... - Enigma - 07-10-2012

you can do it within like 10 minutes. cuz all the calls are required to be given the discounts, regardless of when it was added.
