@Mr_NutterButter i do have a decent amount of physical albums and downloaded tracks, but yeah i'm unfortunately gonna have to go back to piracy. though, i'm not too worried about that from an ethical standpoint because instead of giving artists .0001 cents and the rest of it to the shitty labels and software, i'm giving nothing to anyone lmao.
even as a musician myself, it's way more important to me that people enjoy the music than purchasing it. i kind of have taken this same philosophy on game development as well. i want people to play my shit and listen to my shit, as many as possible, i don't really care how they decide to do that.
@Mr_NutterButter @Forestofenchantment i remember, i went to a concert in 2013 that was Of Mice and Men and A Day To Remember. I had never heard of the former, was just going for the latter. However, they fucking blew me away and were much better than ADTR which i went to see. the lead vocalist at the time, austin carlile, said they had just released a new album and that he didn't care how people listened to it. he literally said "go and pirate that shit!!"
so, i did. and holy fuck it was amazing. went to the store and bought it as soon as i could and i ended up seeing them again later at warped tour and buying another album there. i tried to go see them again but it was right when austin's voice was getting really fucked up and they had to cancel the show. but yeah, now they're one of my favorite bands of all time. so that moment really spoke to me.
