Burning CDs?

Anybody ever feel bad about burning CDs and ripping the bands off? Recently I decided that from now on I'm only going to burn CDs from big bands that don't really need my money. I think that smaller, less known punk or hip-hop groups need the money. So for example, I probably will just burn the new Linkin Park remix album when it comes out. But whenever say Swollen Members comes out with a new album, I'm going to buy it just because I want them to continue to make albums.

Summary: If they aren't or probably won't ever be on Cribs, you should be buying their CDs or going to their shows so they can keep doing what they're good at.

Cheers

yeah i do feel bad, like i got into unknown punk bands a few months ago and i just downloaded a whole bunch of shit but i ended up really liking it....so when they're new cds come out i'll buy it

 
yeah, my bro and i have the same rules but we will burn eachothers cd only if one of us bought it. and we dont usu. burn them for friends if it is someone like swollen members.

i only like to burn live recording or live shows like that, things everyone else gets for free too.

i only feel bad when it is a good band that isnt already making a lot of money. otherwise it is just $15 more dollars i didnt waste

where does all the white go when the snow melts?
 
good call , and i know that incubus doesnt need my $ but i bought their albums anyways because they are just so goddamn good that they deserve my $.

I feel bad downloading from the net, but I mostly do it to see if I like a band, and if I do I'll go and buy their CD. If its someone I like, I'll buy their CD anyways.
