i agree with his anti-download stance. I love buying cds as you have a product that you can touch and feel. you get the artwork and the booklet and it just looks like a quality product. now people just download music, legally or illegally, and it is just a matter of course. you cannot treasure an album that is just a bunch of files on a computer. just as i would buy a book and not just read the text off a computer. obviously people disagree but i think music is worth so much more when there is a tangible element to the product.
