The "once you have downloaded something you're not allowed to buy it by internet law" thing is an assumption which is really bizarre to me.

Do you think you're in the majority when you choose to buy the EPs/CDs/music of artists, having already downloaded their songs?

I'm not as "into" music as a lot of people here, but I love films/series. Altering the subject slightly, I never download films. Like horn, I like to own them and have the whole package (literally). I don't think many people feel this way though, and faced with the choice will go with the easy (read: free) option.
Oh and horn, Jakiri is in the process of co-writing a radio show (for Radio 4, I think?) and is being deliberately vague to annoy you (probly!).
