Week 2-1 CD Ownership, Music Sharing or Spontaneous Listening

Music plays a pretty significant role in my life.  At my house you may hear anything from rap to R&B to gospel on a daily basis.  In the past, we would purchase CD’s on a regular basis, but for the most part CD’s are expensive, and not worth the effort unless every song is awesome and this is very rare. Therefore, mp3’s are the best for me: easier to access, cheaper than a cd and friendlier to the environment. 

Whatever the format for the music I choose, I always purchase it to support the artist that created it.  I use sites like Pandora or YouTube to preview music before I purchase online.  The state of the economy forces me to make better choices and think twice about my purchases.  Do I buy the entire mp3 or do I make the a la carte purchase for 99 cents?  Having this option makes my musical life much better!
