Re: Nobody pays for music Because of morals and knowing that you aren't entitled to the work of others for free.
Although you might not have any morals and your friends might not either, there are a significant number of people in this country that are honest and want to pay a fair price for their entertainment. Maybe when you are a little older you will understand that if no one pays anyone else for their work there is NO economy. Every exchange of money creates jobs and if everyone was like you there would be no jobs. |

I could probably get most, if not all, of the songs I want for free if I want mp3 (which I don't really want) but I still buy cd's - not a ton but when someone wants to get me a gift then I ask for money for music.
I don't like current music so most of the stuff I buy is older (classic/progressive rock) - guys who wrote the vast majority of their songs (music and lyrics). I have no issues with buying CD's - although I would have no issues with buying the CD directly from the band.
I know many others who prefer cd's as well - they have huge collections and most could probably be gotten for free. |

And not all tap water is chlorinated or city water.
Well I'm talking from my perspective and most people's perspectives who can't stand the taste of tap water... If you get your water from a well, then maybe it isn't... But that is an exception, and even then there might be a distinct mineral taste. And not to mention sometimes bottled water is just "convenient."
