What format do you like your music in? Do you prefer to buy CD's from your favorite music store or do you prefer to download mp3? Tell us why?
Me? Thanks for asking.
I still prefer to buy my CDs. I like to have something I can hold on to, open up and see some artwork or read liner notes / lyrics / photos / whatever. I do, however, mp3 the disc when I get to work though so I can listen via my computer. I bothers me that I don't actually own anything when I download an mp3. I've had a few hard drives crash on my and lost all of my collection before. So, I am bit weary of only having an mp3 version of a song.
Maybe it's the same reason I like to read magazines instead of simply reading off of a website. I just like having the physical object to hold.

No, I don't own an iPod. Yes, I do have a crappy portable CD player.

8-tracks, baby!
(though I wasn't even alive at the time)

Seriously though. Like Retehi, I like my MP3's and CD's are good for on the go.
