On the music side of things, I want to support the artists that make the music I enjoy. I realize that record companies, distribution, etc need to be paid, as well. What I resent, is paying for the same piece of music, over and over.
I'm an old fart, I grew up listening to vinyl. In some cases, I've bought a 45 and liked it enough to by the full album. I skipped 8 tracks, but bought many of them again on cassette and again on cd. Many of these have been remastered and I really resent the idea of paying for the same music, yet again. I realize that media and remastering aren't free; but full price every stinking time is getting old.
