I've been disappointed too many times. My rule of only looking more at an album/artist if I happen to like two of their songs (a "rule of two" if you will) has worked out pretty well for me.
I've never paid for music in my life, even when CDs were a thing.
Yee haw you sailor of the seven seas
no! that would be immoral! I just stay in silence all the time and never listen to music!
Piracy is bad! How are billionaires supposed to afford their diamond/ruby/emerald encrusted platinum toilets or their gold plated hummers and gold plated lambos or their 20 top of the line, no expenses spared luxury private jets if we pirate things?!
WON'T SOMEONE THINK OF HOW LAZY AND SHITTY BILLIONAIRES ARE?! THEY CUT SO MANY CORNERS AND STEPPED ON SO MANY PEOPLE TO COLLECT MONEY FROM OTHER PEOPLE'S WORK! THEY DESERVE ALL THE MONEY MADE BY OTHER PEOPLE!
You know I've heard that Brittany spears used to have a Gulfstream 4 private jet but because people pirated her music she had to sell it and get a Gulfstream 3. The Gulfstream 3 doesn't even have a control for its surround sound DVD system.
It's really disgusting what piraters do to these artists
