If I download it, and deem it worthy of my purchase, then I'll go out and buy it just to support the artist. If he makes good music, why shouldn't I pay him? Other than that, I rarely buy music without at least sampling it first with a download, unless it's from my favorite artists, then if a new release comes out, I might go and buy it before trying it out online.
@pumpupthevolume: was that Blu&Exile album that good? I have heard good things about it, and listened to a couple songs myself[pretty dope if I may say], but I have the album sitting here on my comp, and I still haven't gave it a full spin
. I might go do it later this week, cause you reminded me of them.
