Good for you. But for every $15 you drop on a CD the band makes $1 and the rest goes to the recording industry. It's BS. Unless you're buying music by somebody who has a crapload of effects and editing done to their music and the "artist" pretty much does nothing (i.e. Britney Spears), it's really not a fair workout.
I'd rather send $10 to the band or go to one of their concerts than pay for CD that they won't benefit from. That isn't saying that I don't buy CD's. If I really like a group, I frequently do.
But bands benefit much more from concert goers than CD buyers.
By the way, if you're sending files to each other,
