Congrats on the new albums you just bought for your collection.
But I am going to be honest with you, I haven´t bought any albums in over 8 years. I __________ them for free.
Yes, I am a shameless d_________. Why? Because I already have more than 5,000 vinyl records in my collection which I have
bought since 1980 when I was working as a DJ in New York City. Back then there was not internet, no cds, no free-s**t. You either
had to buy a record or "steal it" from the record store. LOL . I never stole any LP though. But after spending more than what a new
Mercedes convertible costs now-a-days on music. I decided it was time to STOP and stop feeding the fat-cats from the music industry.
They still make millions even though people still download the records. So no one is "starving".
But here is some good advice, if you are going to buy music. Buy vinyls. RARE VINYLS.
That is where you can make a profit sometime later. Because sooner or later, your going to wonder where your money went and why
in the HELL did you spend so much money on music and your still trying to make ends meat in your daily life! I don´t see the music industry
guys starving, hell, they are driving Porshes and Ferraris. But if you need some cash, you can always put a rare vinyl from your collection
up for sale to collectors. CDS ain´t collectable (yet), but vinyls are. How much do you think some vinyls are worth?
Look here for an example -- http://www.popsike.com/php/quicksearch.php?top25=all
If your into Rap/Hip-Hop music, see the history of it here -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hip_hop_production and start buying rare albums by
these guys for your collection.

I cant afford to buy cd's as much as I want tbh, that's why I'm a pirate :/ I dont even know where to buy cd's by Wu-tang, J Dilla, DMX, Nas, Canibus, Madvillain etc. I sometimes see an album I would like at FreeRecordShop or a shop like that, but I live in a ishhole so I cant just buy rare stuff. I know its not much of an excuse, I could work more, but I have to pay a lot of ish myself and I have to save money for university. When I do have some more cash, Ill def. make up for it and buy:

J Dilla - Donuts
J Dilla - The Shining
Jaylib - Champion Sound
Fakkelbrigade - Colucci Era
Zwart Licht - Bliksemschicht
Winne - Winne zonder strijd
Wu-Tang - 36 chambers
Wu-Tang - Chamber Music
Canibus - Rip the Jacker
Madvillain - Madvillainy
Nas - Stillmatic (I prefer it over Illmatic hehe )
GZA - Liquid Swords
Raekwon - Only built for Cuban Linx II
WAR - The world is a ghetto
Opgezwolle - Eigen Wereld

Untill then, I hope they dont mind that I havent payed yet.
