Well, when I didn't have a job it was only burning and downloading for me. But now that I DO have a job, I'm making more of an effort to support my artists.

I found out that the Gackt MARS CD and a couple Dir en Grey CDs I have are bootleg so I'm working on replacing those when I have the chance.

Especially with some music... i.e.... I'm a HUGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEE Dir en Grey fan--- my favorite band. However, I haven't listened to their entire discography. And because I'm making an effort to be more supportive, I'm trying to buy their old CDs. So far I only have Withering to Death which was released during the time I started working. Next will be Vulgar ((the next CD back in time...)) etc.

Either way, if you're a SUPPORTIVE fan, you'll buy the product they sell. ((there are, of course, exceptions as to if you like it or not- stuff like that)) I'm not saying those who only DL their music aren't supportive- but they're not supportive to support that artist's livelihood. That's what those people do for a living. They sell their talent. I'm all for internet DLing and burning CDs- but if you really like them, you'll buy their music, too.
