...liking obscure bands. You really like their work, but it turns out that you can't actually get their music anywhere, either in physical form or even for download. There are 3 albums I'm looking for in particular and so far the only CDs I've found are 30-40 dollars, and one I can't even find at all. Gah. stressed

I have similar problems. I don't pirate, I use iTunes, but oftentimes there are bands I like that aren't on there. Also, I really wish I could get some t-shirts with album covers from some of the more obscure bands I like. But alas, they do not exist. Oh, how I wish for a tee with Wolfpack Unleashed's Anthems of Resistance on it... emo

ashlander_alpha MegaTherion777 search harder. someone has it available for pirating pirating doesnt hurt the artists at all. seriously, they don't get jackshit from royalties, it all goes to the record companies. that's why it's the record companies, and not the artists, who were suing pirates, back before they realized that that tactic just isnt effective

I have that problem too, mostly because a lot of the bands I like aren't signed to a label or anything and can't afford to mass produce their albums.

But, happily, I've managed to find one album at a reasonable price by visiting the label's website. I can feel okay about buying from Candlelight.
