i think u might be a little err just unhoughtful..buying cds doesnt make u the real fun..there are plenty rich people going to cd stores and buying everything they might like without considering their tastes and stuff..
I think spellcheck is talking to those people who can afford buying cd but are reluctant to do so. Honestly, how many of us here cannot afford a Japanese album or single? You can be using that money to have a feast at the restaurant you like, or buying some latest clothing from a cool fashion store, or a latest computer games that has just been put on shelves. There's so many ways you could have save money and spend on J-Pop but you didn't, why? Because internet gives you the convenience of hearing great music without paying? I think so.
I do like the fact you mentioned that rich people buy everything they could but didnt' appreciate them as much. Well, you don't really want to compare to those people I believe, they are losers. You should compare with someone who is not as rich as you (there's always someone like that out there), yet they save their money to buy albums from their favourite singer once in a while.
Still, for those young fans who are still 13-17, don't starve yourself just to buy CDs from your favourite artist, you can do that when you start working, even just a part time job.

I haven't forgotten about you yet, endoresu! Welcome to the forum and glad you find your way here. I hope you enjoy your stay here.
Since you're living in Canada, my advice is to purchase your J-Pop CDs online, the benefit of it is that you don't have to pay the taxes! Yeah, no PST or GST, just pay the original price and you get free shipping if you spend above the required amount.
If you do consider buying online, I hope you have a read on this too, it will make your spending even more meaningful. |

hehe thanks for the offer yumi! I'll remember that the next time I have the money
hi eyn /wavewave hehe thanks for the welcome! I never knew there was no PST/GST when you buy online. I think I've only ever bought something from Yesasia once, and always thought that the taxes were added in when you choose Canada as a shipping destination. I'll have to pay more attention next time. I'll remember to use the link next time, but I'm one of those people that when I want to buy something, I have to go out and have it in my hands that day, ya know? hahaha I always hate waiting for shipping.
spirus - I haven't had time to make an avvy or sig just yet, I've been working on something else these past few days. When I get the chance I'll add those too
<--- this is so cute XD |
