Different musical industry these days. I'd be very surprised if anyone I know actually bought albums; the idea of buying a single when they're all uploaded on YouTube by Vevo anyway is ridiculous.

Call me old-fashioned, but I always buy the full-album (physical CD). It just doesn't feel right doing it any other way.

You are old-fashioned then, lol, but still respectable. I'm just saying that the average kid, everyone I know, just doesn't buy music anymore.

Instead of b sides he does bonus tracks
My Darling & Careful What You Wish For on Relapse
Ridaz & Session One on Recovery

besides NO ONE does b sides anymore this isn't 2000. Bonus tracks are where it's at now.

Cuz those days are gone
I wanted an album so rugged nobody could touch it.
Spent a million a track and went over my budget.
Now how in the fuck am I supposed to get out of debt?
I can't rap anymore, I just murdered the alphabet.

Yeah, I only know one person besides me who actually buys physical copies. There's no better feeling than getting a real album. :smoking:

Yeah, it's not just Em. B-Sides in general are very rare nowadays, from any artist.

I do the same,but the reason is that iTunes for Europe sux lol.Most of my fav albums aren't available on it(for me anyway).Recovery landed in stores after a few weeks or so...I will look for a good site for digital albums where i can pay with paypal.I always have some cash there :zipped:
