Remember the days before iTunes and other such music downloading programs came out? Everyone had their own CD player, whether it be a huge stereo system, a car CD player, or just a compact player you could take with you everywhere. Now that the iPod and other MP3 players have come out, you just don't see those as much anymore. Well, I lied, car players are still in numerous amounts.Anyway, I like to call the era before the iPod the 'CD Age'. And to me, this 'age' isn't quite done yet. Sure with the convenience of iTunes you can get any song you want for 99 cents and even buy entire albums for whatever they cost. But iTunes also has the upload your CD feature. This is where you can save a whole lot of money.
This CD feature is great for bands such as AC/DC and Led Zeppelin whose songs won't show up on iTunes. Just pop in one of their albums and now you have their songs on your iPod.
Or just go to a place called the land of Wal-Mart. I was just strolling through the CD aisle last night and found AC/DC's 'The Razor's Edge' album for 7 bucks! It has 12 songs on it and if it WAS on iTunes, it would cost closer to 12 dollars. In that case, you just saved 5 bucks and now you can buy even more songs.
What I'm trying to say is look at local music stores for your CD's instead of going online to buy them. Of course you could always download illegally, but I don't trust those sites on my computer. The choice is yours.
