Yeah and it also rips off the people who worked hard on those soundtracks.Quote:

Yeah that's right, Disney.
Rips them off? I think the people behind LOTR aren't really caring much about people downloading their music when they're raking in millions of dollars on merchandise.
I can understand buying cd's from artists and whatnot, but downloading movie soundtracks is not a big deal IMO.
Nope never have
Limewire....*yawn*
DC++ is great for soundtracks
I only buy them when I really, really enjoyed the music; it's not a habit, and I won't just buy them on a whim like I sometimes do with regular cds. Although the LotR soundtrack is great, and so is the Lords of Dogtown one. Queen of the Damned has got an amazing soundtrack as well.
I download them from time to time, but really I have more Final Fantasy soundtracks than movie soundtracks.
The only actual soundtrack albums I've ever bought were Batman Forever (when I was... what, 12?) and I have the Star Wars Episode III soundtrack because it came with the game my friend bought for me.
Somehow, I doubt film composers make much money off of merchandise.Quote:

Amen.Quote:

Oh yeah, I do remember that I bought the Dangerous Minds soundtrack for "Gangstas Paradise" by Coolio, which I loved at the time.
Its more like, Theyre really rich so I dont care or feel guilty. If I had lots of money I'd buy them because I really enjoy shiny official packaging much much more than mp3's but I'm poor so =/Quote:

Also, a couple of Veggie Tales CD's which feature songs from their videos. :D
I've downloaded a few, too... Lion King (since I lost the tape and also since I no longer even have a cassette player anyway), Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero, House of Flying Daggers, The English Patient, Cold Mountain, City of Angels... uhm... yeah, I think that's all of the ones I've got more than just a couple from. As you may tell from that download list, I'm more likely to download background music (a la Gabriel Yared) while I'm more likely to buy soundtracks with songs with lyrics/vocals.
Some of them...if they are especially good.
Yeah, I remember when I was eight, I wanted to play the piano, but my mom couldn't afford one. I would always look in the window of the extremely rich family owned piano shop a block away from our house. So one day when they went out to lunch and forgot to lock the door, I just went in and took one, because I knew it wouldn't hurt such a wealthy family from a wealthy lineage.Quote:
