I wrote a few weeks

I wrote a few weeks ago about how much I’d fallen out of love with the process of buying music, and a few posts down I posted about Apple’s new music service. Today I played around and downloaded the following:Bob Marley and the Wailers: Legend 2 disc set ($9.99)T.A.T.U: ‘All the things she said’ (.99)DJ Shadow: ‘Organ Donor: Extended Mix’ (.99)Vangelis: Blade Runner Soundtrack (7.98)The Crystal Method: ‘Keep hope alive’ (.99)Dirty Vegas: ‘I should know’ (.99)This was 28 songs total, 2 hours worth of music. To legally try and get this normally/legally I would have had to spend almost triple what I did pay. Also, I would never have purchased anything by Crystal Method, I ‘discovered’ them, and .99 was a safe amount to see what they were like. I will buy more of them in the future.OTOH I could see going a bit hog wild (had to resist getting the Rob Zombie albums).So I will be only buying songs to reward myself for writing efforts and on special occasions, but am happy about this whole thing.
