You are seriously not buying music off iTunes. Tell me I'm right.

Actually, you're right. I very rarely buy things explicitly from iTunes. I almost always use eMusic or Amazon MP3, and try to jump onto vinyl and CD whenever I could get a good price.

But you get my point. The Kinks aren't available anywhere in their original (sixties) form. Even on those "questionable" places to get music, I've had trouble finding this album. It's a real shame, too, because from what I've heard of their single "You Really Got Me", they seem to be exceptionally solid.

I always hear people be like "holy SHIT why are you BUYING digital MUSIC what the FUCK" but they never actually explain why that's such a horrible thing to do.

Anyway: My favorite songs on Arthur are "Victoria," "Shangri-La," Young and Innocent Days" and "Yes Sir, No Sir." Best album of the '60s IMO.

You really think I'm going to pay for everything I want to listen to?

You can't justify theft.

I use spotify which gives some of the money from the userbase's monthly payment to pass onto the artists.
