It has always been like that, but it suddenly felt different. As if I lost a part of my daily routine. LOL
I find it DRACONIAN because of its strictness. And I have nothing against it either.  |
Completely agree, if I can't test something first I won't buy it full stop.
If I hadn't been able to download a handful of songs from (miss)understood and GUILTY about 5 years ago, I wouldnt've heard of Ayu, and I wouldn'tve gone on to buy about 15 albums (remix+studio), 6 live DVDs, tour merch and posters from her. That's a heck of a lot of money I spent to say I illegally downloaded and "stole" something. You're welcome Avex!
