chill the hell out GR. You're cool, but you don't need to flex your coolness by feeling superior over the content that is being posted. Its conversation, not some esoteric dive into the philosophy of the pillows and the majority opinion upon the best songs/bsides/albums/etc.

And I don't think I'm gonna be buying the New Animal single...I already pre ordered the new album and I don't have enough money for both. :(

Kinda thought that the point of this forum was so that people could express their opinions on subjects about the pillows. Doesn't hurt that Tidusauron's adding more subjects... I guess.

No, I'm not jedipunking out, and no, I'm not really upset or anything...
I guess I'm just a little irritated there isn't something better to talk about. Not that opinions are bad! I do enjoy talking about what I like and dont like and why. Yeah, that post was a little too harshly worded, I think. I talk about non-ground-breaking stuff with Mare and Skoolyard all the time.

Yeah, so I'm more annoyed at the general state of ~meh-ness~ going around in the forum in the past few weeks. Kinda thinking that at times, we're just a few steps ahead of "WHAT...IS YOUR FAVORITE COLOR?"* Again, no one's to blame...except for the pillows, who, even at their blazingly fast rate, can't crank out enough music to satisfy my appetite.

Does anyone feel even slightly the way I do?

That's just how it goes on a forum that's dedicated to one specific topic.

Why should I have trouble making myself a customer, when they don't think I'm even a potential customer?

From the sound of it, you shouldn't. There's really no reason for why you should... you either want to or you don't...

Personally I still feel bad when I realize I have Smile and Ride on Shooting Star (single) from downloads...

Nonetheless, the real reason I'm buying it is so I can compare CD quality to mp3 quality. I always hear Mare saying mp3 sucks compared to the CD's quality, so I want to get it to the fullest.

I've gotten some really fucked up mp3s at times, and the only way I got those fixed was with direct rips from the CDs. The only mp3 floating around for one of the tracks off of Living Field was cut short, and the only mp3 for girlfriend had crap at the start of it from a scratched CD or something, and it wasn't until I bought the CD that I was able to enjoy those tracks to the fullest.

Plus I like the pride of ownership. :shred:

I know what you mean. When I listened to my My Foot I noticed the difference in quality straight away.

And I will buy Pillows records whenever It is possible for me. But I don't have credit card, maybe I should get one. My father promised to flash his when Pied Piper comes out.

But the truth is that The Pillows would have never gotten any money from me without piracy. And sometime I will go to a concert and buy T-shirt and other goods. :)

@Mare

I know what you're talking about. While back, ALL of my pillows music was downloads, including Living Field. I had that flawed Girlfriend track, so I know what you're talking about. The first time I heard it I about had a seizure! :lol:

But in general the mp3s flying around are decent... some better than others.

Also, I'd like to ask something I've been wanting to know for a while: is there a format out there that's better than mp3 quality?

Ogg Vorbis is generally considered to be better, as is mp4 and m4a.

Ogg is rarely used, but m4a is more common. It's rare to see mp4 files that aren't videos, but still. It all depends on who's ripping their shit.

I think other people on the forum know more than I do about this though (Looking at you sheer). I've only had a glance at the stuff.
