i definitely believe in buying cds. honestly, i don't think you can truly say that you are a fan of a musician unless you actually express that by purchasing their music, unless of course there are circumstances like lack of money or something preventing you from buying cd's. i used to only download, there was a 2 year period where don't think i really bought any music. but now i almost never download. besides, downloading is not as fulfilling to me as actually owning the cd. i like to have the cd, the case, the inserts...i need all that to really enjoy the music, lol.
as for buying old music, i do it all the time. if you like it, why not buy it. i mean, old music is just as good as new music, if not better sometimes, lol.
