How many of you actually buy his albums?

[thegreenbit]

Like the title said.
I bought all his albums and only downloaded a couple of his albums when I was waiting for the CDs to arrive. I'm a loyal fan by heart, :D.

[yukiko]

I bought mine (while it's still available)
but i don't have his first album TT___TT

I only mean for his regular album.
I don't have any of his special album like fantasy plus and else.
I only have 1 of his concert original album.

[gifted1]

Haha, great poll.

I bought Fantasy, one DVD of his live concerts in 2004, and SG Tour 08 DVD.

I downloaded the rest because I can't find copies here. It's all fake with a "Maxell CD" in it with a photocopied cover...

[thegreenbit]

Yea I only bought one concert dvd and none of bootleg cds you see everywhere if you go to a music store in Chinatown anywhere.

[hobielover]

I have all 8 studio albums on real CDs ordered through YesAsia, as well as his latest concert set and the OST for "Secret." So, I tend to buy his albums.

[kirasuran]

i have preeeeeeetty much all his cds..

yeh. its crap if they're just downloaded..its so immaterial! of course unless you CANT get them...but yeh

[Pao-Pao]

I buy the albums...I've never downloaded his music...well maybe a couple of songs like the one from the Olympics but that's it :D

We have to support him by buying his albums people!!! HI5!!

I used to download them at first, before I found out about YesAsia. CD-rip quality is sometimes better when you rip it yourself, though. Since I don't have the EPs, I ended up downloading those. :crazy: I promise that if I ever get the chance, though, I'll buy his EPs. :angel: I like having the lyrics books, with the pictures and, of course, the lyrics! I also like having the DVDs of MVs, so I can sub them when I get the chance. :happy:

I became a fan about one year ago and at first I downloaded all his CDs. Then a friend bought Still Fantasy on a China-exchange for me. I ordered On the Run and his Incomparable live CD/DVD, later his 2007 Tour CD/DVD. When I was in Hong Kong this year, I bought all his other albums (5 CDs at once), except for Fantasy, which was out of stock and which I had to order on Yesasia. Now I'm really looking forward to his new album, which I will, of course, buy on the Internet.

I think it's only fair to buy his CDs, after all he puts a lot of work into them and it's a way to show one's support for him!

i used to be the same as you too! haha, before i found out about yesasia. i used to DL all his albums. now i buy all of them!

[jazlyn87]

i bought the few new albums because i just recently became a fan .. like in 2005 ..

[criplord33]

OMG OF every1 should buy is his album not download it !!! :-x

[alisadorsey@yahoo.co]

I usually buy most of my CD's from YesAsia, but use Amazon.com also, because they have less shipping & handling prices. I used to download, but it would only be to my work computer, I stopped because I didn't want them to think that is all I am there for or that was all I was doing all day long. So I just buy online now.

[ceceliah]

i buy the pirated copies.
true dedication

[JAY_LUVER]

I have all his albums, movies, concert dvd's, and my friend bought me his books! Although, I just flip through the pages looking at his photos b/c I can't read most of it. Haha. Total #1 fan of his.

Not really. YesAsia provides free shipping when you order enough stuff. I think Amazon is too expensive! :oops: They charge $10 or $20 more than YesAsia, and the one time that I did try to order a Chinese CD through them, I ended up canceling the order because it took over 3 months.

[.: blacklily :.]

I do both~

usually i'll be sure to buy his concert DVD's first, then rake some more for the full albums hehe Coz for me, it's not everyday you can see Jay perform right infront of your eyes...

"if you can't come to the concert then just satisfy yourself in indulging jay's face infront of the tv set - plus with zoom mode hehe :tongue:"

^ my principles of shopping kekeke

Really. Wow! I just started using them. I just ordered Moon Child. I had never seen it. My shipping cost was 2.99, but on YesAsia.com I ordered Lu:NA-Gackt CD ,and the shipping was a whopping 3.99. So maybe I need to order more things. I have before and it was free at first, but then they started charging me more as I ordered more through them. Well thanks for the eye opener. I will keep that in mind when I order again next week for something else. Thanks!

Before you actually confirm everything, you change the shipping to "Super Saver Free Shipping" or something like that, and the shipping cost will disappear. It's rather simple, but you just have to remember to change it. The minimum purchase requirement is $39.00. I didn't realize it was so high, but I guess I tend to double up on my orders a lot! :? It takes about a week, but that's pretty good, really, from Hong Kong. I've noticed that my bank adds a foreign fee, though, when I use my debit card. Not much, though. Actually, Amazon also has free shipping like that.

A dollar isn't really such a big difference when Amazon charges more than $10 more per album. That adds up to over $100 when you've bought all of Jay's albums! :crazy: That's really quite a bit of money! They want $37.99 for "On the Run" and $38.99 for the "Secret" OST?! OK, I do see one version of "On the Run" for $12.99, but it ships in 1 to 3 weeks?! Call me crazy, but I'm glad I didn't spend $50 for my "World Tour" DVD/CD set! I have it, though. So, I'll happily stick to ordering Jay's albums through YesAsia.

Kind of random: Doesn't "Moon Child" have LeeHom Wang in it?

[Darkshrimp]

I buy most of the albums :D and everything else he releases, but i download as well, because i'm too lazy to wait (coz i'm in australia) and to rip it myself :D haha

[sh0ck815]

i buy the pirated copies.
true dedication

lol awesome

I buy them whenever I visit Asia.

So it's kind of a pain to have to wait that long to hear his new albums.
Sometimes I give in and burn copies of my friend's pirated cds.

[Yifmelon]

I bought all his albums whilst I was in China =D

[emilyxi6]

plagued by guilt that i havnt bought anything yet :(
promise to run over to the closest asian place i find to buy them
or....at least one....been drained of money after his concert =O
:)

[azxeph]

I bought a few on my recent trip to China they were fairly cheap.

[shino]

i buy all the albums with his autograph and i ve to order it , its quite expensive,but its worth it,haha.

[DaeronX]

uhmm ive not been fan of him for very long but as all the artists i like ill say straight away i simply download them... ._.

[ChunElla]

I don't buy any because I live in Lithuania and here don't alow buy music from other countries. This is sooo bad :-x

[lee-vee-argh]

got all his albums except for Jay and Capricorn which i do plan to buy!
Also plan to buy his concert DVD, if one is released of his concert in Sydney ^^

[Peach_happo]

I"ll be honest and say that I chose other. ^_^
I have never bought any of his albums(yeah yeah, just judge me now imo) nor have I ever downloaded his albums before.
Instead, I've only downloaded a selection of his songs. May sound like some bastard fan to you but I'm afraid not every song of Jay is enjoyed by me and that's just personal preference. I also don't like to buy.
But don't bash. :)

[suzannayap]

The only one that have is fantasy plus but I download the other songs. I started to like jay chou this year so i am currently working hard to download all his songs.hope i will have all his songs soon.:happy:

[crovoxisikes]

i do both..i'll buy whenever i can but when the pocket is empty its kinda hard to spend it on albums :(

[Qinghe]

I only buy the albums I like. If there is an album with mostly songs I don't like, then I just listen to the ones on the album online. I don't download any of his songs or videos. I can get a good price for legit ones although it's still pretty expensive.
