You have no idea about my personal commitment to local record stores. How many years did you spend behind the counter at Home of the Hits? I had a few and consider it the greatest job I ever had. Most weeks I was glad to spend my entire paycheck on records and I left more money there and at every other store in town you can probably even imagine. And guess what? I still do. Have you been buying a lot of music at Spiral Scratch or Record Theater lately. You can mention my name at either and they will tell you. Finally, the real music fans are out there STILL EXCITED about getting new music, STILL HOT to get it as soon as they can and then STILL BUYING it legit when it comes out. There's a different process that it all happens now. As Bob Dylan said, "things have changed". Laughable, Dave. You have no idea about my personal commitment to local record stores.

In fact you're drawing attention to these albums, pointing out that they're available for free online and suggesting that instead of waiting for the albums to come out, it's better to keep looking online until you find a pirated version. Pretty lame. Great job contributing to the spiraling decline of local record stores, Home of the Hits and New World Record thank you. Uh, sure looks like you’re condoning illegal downloading.
