its wrong to do right??!!

(FYI. I AM V V ANGSTY AT THIS POINT)

as some of you know, i ADORE cds. i love goin to music stores, immerse myself w de tons of cds on display and bring a couple of them home. and of couse the most important thing is its LEGAL. moi has friends who are musicians and composers. i know they go through hell to create that perfect tune.

yet at the same time, i want to do de environment right. especially when these days i have been blasting the a/c like mad. i wanna do something right in return. so after weeks of contemplating, i decided to buy music online. YES ONLINE. btw it takes me alot of courage to do that.

i think its de right thing (note de number of times i used the word "right"). i mean when i buy a cd, i dun exactly love every songs in the disc. most probably i keep playing that 2-3 songs. and w ipod, once i got the songs in my bb, i would chuck de cd aside and not touch them again (unless someone wanna borrow it). thus it becomes a sensible choice to download music online.

NOW here comes de i-wanna-kill-de-pple-who-sell-music-online part. one of de obvious places where i could purchase music will be itunes. ohhh silly me, totally forgot that itunes dun cater to people in asia (except japan). FINE.

then i went to good old amazon. failed. i know its de whole copyrights thing. but why cun they go get an extended copyright??!!

anyway i decided to try out some singapore sites. example - soundbuzz. i tot i hit de jackpot. yeah i can download music. ohhh wait. de files are in WMA format. who de fuck use WMA format to listen to music?? who who who??!! and of course WMA cannot be coverted to mp3 as its right protected. SERIOUSLY who listen to WMA format music?? WHOOOOOOoo!!!! to add to my anger, most LEGAL music sites only provides WMA music (i havent found de "some" yet). come on people, tell me how much bill gates pay you guys?? you shld know by now he is jus doin this to piss steve job. come on, give us a break here.

i was so pissed off that i almost joined de dark side. i asked couple of friends for the urls. all popping up like rabbits. i tried. but i failed. i jus cun bring myself to download illegal stuff. I JUS CUN. sigh.

so people if u know where i can download LEGAL MP3 MUSIC, please email me - mnsl@yahoo.com

i still believe its right to do right.
