How much money do you spend on new tunes a week roughly
Posted on: 25.11.2010 by Wm Steinruck
I'm just getting into electro after playing the same thing for years. So I'm buying loads of tunes at the moment. But how many/how much do you believe your spending.

How does emusic works regarding legality of mixing them live? Do they give you a paper which says you're entitled to those tracks? Here in Portugal we have to go to the gigs with all evidences that we bought that specific track.

This question applies to other services that are subscription based.

I'm starting to build my tracklist and since it's a big thing around here, I have to be careful.

I don't play gigs any more, so it varies a lot. 99% of the stuff I buy is physical formats as I don't like spending money on digital downloads unless that's the only way to get a particular track. In the last year, there were a couple of weeks where I spent over

back when I had little responsibilities and even fewer bills or financial commitments...

about $20 every couple weeks on vinyls ($1 Bin records and what not)

and about $15-40 a week on CD's

and about once every month or two I'd drop $150-$250 on a wild spree. This often left me with a huge crate of shit I've never listened to and is still in the wrapping.

I get most stuff from a record pool which carries a monthly fee that equates to ~$7 a week.

A lot more since the beatport discount code thread opened up. Probably the equivalent of a cd a week now.

Probably about 40-50 euro a month. Ive only recently gotten into trance and now moving into techno and got a lot of Complilations, (for example in search of sunrise etc) which were very good value for money. Now im starting to just get individual tunes but i have to say I find Beatport to be very expensive. 7 Digital and even itunes normally sell for about 1 euro a track but Beatport is at least 1 50 a track and sometimes 2 50, which i believe is scandalous. i know the argument will be that the music is more up to date, but I still believe its a bit of a rip off. Plus even buying a full release the overall price usually is not far off just adding up the price of the individual tracks.

i've spent so much money on music it's kind of preposterous, i don't even want to say the amounts with vinyl and cds. i calmed down quite a bit when i started buying digitally, putting maybe around $50-100 a month on average.

currently i spend almost no money on buying music, outside of an occasional release i really want. i have so much stuff from the past and there are a lot of great artists/labels putting out free tracks so i just dig for those. though if a person is cool and puts up a good amount of high quality releases for free, i will usually donate some money to them for being so awesome.

diging out this old thread cause i'm interested on where you spend your money and how much. at the moment i spend about 60$ per month, mostly beatport, sometimes itunes (just found a compilation of 100 techhouse tracks for like 10$), and some of it for actual cds from the store. got about 350 tracks that i know well and like to play in the genres deephouse, techhouse, techno and a little minimal. but i keep finding good tunes and keep spending money since i'm still building my library. do you guys buy only new tunes or also some older gems? i keep finding older acid house/techno stuff which i really like but not really go well with my new tunes
also, does anyone know of a site similar to last.fm and pandora where they recommend you music based on what you listen to in itunes? both these services aren't available in my country...

I personally find that Juno has a better selection a lot of times for some of the more "hard to find" tracks that I'm looking for, at least Dubstep wise. I like beatport and approve of it's simple and quick format, but I've been searching for a particular track on there and have to to go to Juno more and more often as of late.

I budget myself $20 a week.

I mainly buy Dubstep. But I also like the occasional DnB/Breaks/Electro House business.

As I don't have a "real" setup yet, I'm also saving for that. And I've really gotten into this "electroswing" thing that's been popping up recently.

But yeah, $20 (max) a week for buying tracks.

It all depends when I have money or a gig lol. But when I have a gig I'll usually buy $30 worth of music for it, and without a gig I spend about $5 a week.

Anywhere between 0 and 50$ a month online, depends what comes out really.
Now if I go home to visit my parents and end up going to the used music store I can't leave that place without buying like 3-5 CDs that are usually 5-8$ ea.

I spend 30-50 a month easy on bp, supplemented w/ a little itunes. I also joined 8th Wonder, but haven't taken full advantage of it yet.
