I mean everyone knows that you can get any movie out there for free and if you aren't into piracy there are always things like Netflix. Now movies are kind of expensive these days (especially with a service like Netflix existing) but if you add a commentary track and a couple special features, I'm going to buy the Blu-Ray, it just seems like a fair deal. Same thing with music and special editions. So I have about $30 to spend on iTunes and I want to get rid of it... but why buy a new release in HD for $25 when I can pick up the Blu-Ray and receive a physical copy (and possibly a digital one as well) for the same price? The music they sell is terrible (why pay for anything in 256?) and the movies are overpriced. Any good documentaries or rare movies that you can suggest? I'm into pretty much everything. -- http://soundcloud.com/thundersheep/lunatic-asylum http://soundcloud.com/thundersheep/summer-rain <cite>thundersheep posted [p:1121166] in iTunes mak...

Yeah, that's generally how I give money to the people that matter. Concert tickets and merch. If I buy music, it's going to be from Beatport where I can get the quality I need, or in physical form where I can rip the quality I need.
