If I cannot get the CD immediately, I download the songs, then I ALWAYS buy the CD as soon as it is available. Others are not as concientious, though.

For those who think differently...............atleast in this group...........please ask yourself if this is fair? An average album gets a minimum of 45,000 downloads on one single site........I hope that none of that 45,000 is from ARRAHMANFANS, cause that would be a right ol shame. > > I do something whenever an arr album is available on the net, I make up false aliases and bombard these sites, especially on pages with ARR's music..........where I leave messages like........shame on you......get the cd, stop stealing and encourage your idols........................I hope all of you.........(10,000 is not a silly number) try and pitch in with you efforts, even though it seems that it doesnt help, let me tell you one thing..............it does! > > Please guys.
