Because you clearly misread my points and at the same time didn't get the one I primarily made. That being that mix and matching CDs, whilst I don't do it, is fine by me. Just as long as it gets paid for (the songs).

Once again, who is talking about illegal downloading ? Only you have started the term 'thieving' and 'illegal' into this thread and you want to keep rummaging it down other people's throats.

I never said you were, I merely said don't encourage it. You're the one who came at me on the ironic defensive and failed doing so.

Ken has understood my point perfectly as you did; you are just too anal to admit it.

I understood your point, you're just lazy. "CDs are cumbersome" no they're not, first off. Second "You can mix and match". Yeah? Fine by me, as long as each song you use is paid for. Read my posts then reply to me post-doing so, not before.

I will make a poll to decide the outcome. I shall call it CD player VS Mp3 player. The game is simple : You enter the arena with a CD player and I will enter it on my blazing chariot MP3 player.

The one with most votes wins.

Point of this is? I prefer MP3 players to CD walkmans, purely because I have all my albums on it. Carrying CDs around is cumbersome, OWNING them isn't. The CD ITSELF is not cumbersome, in outdoor situations where you can't necessarily bring them out, they would be. Owning them is not cumbersome, read my posts. So you've gone off in some irrelevant direction.

I'm not anti-mp3 player, I own an iPod and it's full by far, but everything on it is paid for and it's all albums.

If you want to mix and match, that's fine. My only point was that you pay for every song you acquire.

Comprende? Splendid.

IF you brought it into the thread what was the purpose of highligting the issue if you didnt want to discuss it. Do you know that the Police has to study the mind of the Criminal to understand the purpose of a crime ; thats exactly it - The purpose - without purpose there can be no cause.

Bullshit. Shelves and shelves and when they run out you find them in your wardrobe, box-room, under the bed, in the draws EVERYWHERE. Try and ask a DJ if he owns evry tune in a club on CD.

I stress that storage capacity is a very important factor. Ultimatly, is the prcaticality of the smaller storage and thats whats taking over the world now.

I didn't bring it in with the intent of continuing, it was one line to Rev and you decided to grab the baton and run backward. You continued, I finished. No biggie.

Funny, because I have enough CD's to fill two iPods and they take up hardly any room on my wall, in an average sized room in which I already have a LOT of stuff. Stop trying to make lame excuses.

The issue is about PAYING for what you download. Morally I don't agree with downloading anyway, but that's me. My main argument is that if you MUST download, you should pay for it and there are more simple, easy ways to do so. People who continually and illegally download are just lazy, selfish f*cks. Financially it's wrong, it's stealing and it's stupid.

You seem to be overlooking the fact that I am saying if you HAVE to download, whilst I don't agree, I say go for it...IF IT'S LEGAL and paid for. I don't care if you never buy an album and mix and match everything, but as long as every song you own is paid for, then no harm is done.

How could I missread this as something saying you were against mix matching CDs? Thus warranting you to preach to me about the values of buying CDs.

Read properly yourself. I asked you, I didn't tell.

Second, I asked you to clarify what you were saying in that entire post.

What's your point?

I was only responding to your post saying you didn't understand what GCG was talking about in his other post. You're putting words into my mouth that were never there.

He already responded at that point and henceforth I clarified that I don't have any major (or minor for that matter) "problem" with mix matching CDs as long as everything you own on those CDs is paid for. Personally I prefer to own the CD and package as intended by the artist, however this doesn't matter much to some people, and they prefer downloading. As long as it's paid for and not stolen, I don't care what you do.

How many more times will I have to say it?

-AC

None at all.Can this all please just stop now.

is it comprehensible.....

When this stops becoming a discussion board, yes. I'm not having wars with anyone, it's a simple discussion.

-AC

well this thread wasn't made to be talking about this stuff. You've blown it completely out of proportion.

is it comprehensible.....

In my defense I dropped it after Rev did. Take it up with GCG if you got a problem.

-AC

doesn't matter who dropped it first or who dropped it second. Obviously it's been picked up again, so just stop and it wouldn't continue.

is it comprehensible.....

What is your major malfunction man? I'm sure GCG or Ken don't have as big a problem with it as you, just chill out.

I swear you're just overly bitter because you can't debate with anyone on this forums without moaning.

-AC

Are you done? Good.

This just needs to stop. You've completely sidetracked this whole thread from it's original purpose.

is it comprehensible.....

That link is a reply of Rev to you. You are the cause of the illegal talk. (PLease Read until the end)

You said no doubt didnt you ? You did say the word 'NO DOUBT' ?
mkay STFU now.

STOP talking about Illegal downloading. You may not have problems with. Good For You. What I speak of is the Practicality of the Storage. UNderstood ? Fine.

The only fixation you want to have as I have proved in the link above is that you did intend bringing ILLEGAL into the thread as you keep blatantly introdocing into every single post you are making.

A man who throws a stone and hinds his hand and run away wailing " Oh ; I was 'Merely' ......Oh ! ; I 'Simply'......

Who do you think you are fooling if not yourself ? You mentioned the term Thieveing and Rev said Illegal and it all kicked off from there. So be a man enough to admit it; ..mky Thanks

Hmm, *reads back*

You made one more post in between the post I quoted and when I actually posted it.

Hahaha, unbelievable. So you're saying one pro-downloading argument is "CDs take up space"? More or less?

Yeah, so buy it, put it on comp and store it. Unless you live in a matchbox collecting CDs won't matter. Argue all the points you want, it won't prove downloading to be justified.

You never stated anything about mix matching...so how did you clarify yourself? The masses want to know.

Yeah, I suggested that posting songs COULD encourage illegal downloading. After a reply or two it was done, you decided to bring it back up. I even said "Out of respect I won't dwell on it." YOU continued. Shh.

Yeah, who kicked off any speaking of storage? Nobody but you. It's irrelevant to the argument. You asked why I brought up illegal downloading AFTER I said I dropped it for the good of the thread, so I was telling you why I don't agree with it and why it's financially wrong. You started desperately trying to find a point to win and as a result, birthed this whole "storage" debate. So what? CDs aren't cumbersome, proven by the fact that I own as many of them as I do and have MUCH, MUCH room. Is an MP3 player better? Yes, absolutely. Why? Because of the amount it holds. CDs on their own aren't cumbersome. I have NO problem with mix and matching or burning or whatever. My only qualm is that you PAY for everything you acquire.

Moving on...

I brought it in and after a reply or two, dropped it OUT OF RESPECT for your thread. WHO brought it back? Who continued it? You and you and you alone, buddy boy. You could have continued your thread as it was intended, you chose not to. You dropped the ball.

It didn't kick off did it? Rev made a couple of replies and it was done, I dropped it out of respect to your thread after those SMALL replies. You picked it up and kept running.

Shhh.

Read the complete thread please.

GCG raised the issue that MP3's are more useful because they're smaller, I entirely agree. Whilst I don't OWN any burned CDs, I don't have a problem with them if the contents are paid for.

Do I need to open paint and draw a colourful diagram? Or do you understand now?

You missed out a part AC. Reply to your NO DOUBT coment.
