legal music collection

on: September 28, 2005, 02:35:44 PM

What percentaje of your classical music collection is legally purchased?

In my case, i like to buy original CDs. But i admit that nowadays, with tons of free (and ilegal) music available to download on the net, the temptation is unavoidable.

I like original CD's too, so I am happy to pay.

Then I don't feel bad about the 300,000 piano sheets i have collected.

If I really really like the performance, I'll buy the CD. I used to buy a lot more than I do now.

However almost all my scores are bought, I dislike working from photocopies or loose sheets of music. I love books and collecting them, so naturally I prefer working from them instead of photocopies.

At his point my classical selection is 100% legit and purchased by yours truly.....

If you ask about my Jimmy Buffet collection...well...I plead the 5th.
