I do.  I don't d/l much, but cd's other people have burned for me
that I've really liked, I've bought them.  I had Gillian
Welch-Revival burned for me and liked it so much I bought it AND Hell
Among the Yearlings, and then waited eagerly for Time (the revelator)
to come out.  Same w/ VoL (i'd never heard of them before).  Had 2 of
their cd's burned for me and now own 5-6 I think, all purchased.  Its
also a liner note/cd case thing for me as well.  And I love the smell
of a new cd... kinda like the new-car smell deal.

Same here, except for the sister part.  Change 'my sister' to 'a few
friends'. 

I won't pay the $18+ for a cd though.  Unless its OOP or very hard to
find.  That just blows me away.  Borders does the new release thing @
$12.99 for a week or two, Costco gets 'em cheap too, and most of my
cd purchases are made online.  I like this place:

http://cheap-cds.com/surf/home 

When I can order a cd from the mainland, have in my mailbox 3-4 days
later for less than the cd stores here even after shipping costs,
well, I can't not do it.  If you guys know any cheaper sites, post
away man! :)
