I think the people who download without buying the CD are this generation's version of the person that always copied other people's CDs without paying a penny to the artist.I used to download albums months before they came out because I couldn't wait to hear them. Unfortunately when it came to buying the CD/LP the excitement was lost as I'd already heard the album endless times before.My new year's resolution was to resist downloading albums from my favourite artists and experience the thrill of buying an album on the official release date. The event in itself adds SO much to the value of the record.So, I've only heard 'The Rip' (wow!!!) and 'Machine Gun' (wow, again!!!) once through official sources and I'm SO excited about getting my boxset and will be avoiding (but recording for future listening) any Portishead TV and radio performance until the 28th!
