I joined MOG last week (a myspace for music) and have checked out a few other profiles. A lot of people have very strange music collections.

Almost no one seems to have a full album (I guess they've just downloaded rather than bought their music).

Some people have have odd choices such as a collection that's mostly gangster rap, but then they have Britney Spears, Bjork, and The Pussycat Dolls as well???

They don't have the best albums of particular artists. For example, they will have "God's Son" by Nas, but nothing else. Why in the world would you have that and not Illmatic? Especially if you're downloading your music.

Crazy people :o:D

Different taste.....they possibly just like one song per band/artist and not the one you'd choose.

I don't get it, what exactly is your question?  People like different artists, albums, genres, etc.  Your not gonna choose what music you like based on what others opinions are.

You see, there is a little thing called opinion, now what it does is it affects what you like or support or do. Opinions stem from how one would percieve things. Hope that cleared it up for you.

Of course not. And of course I know people have different opinions. I respect that. But How can you possibly enjoy Brittney Spears If you have D'Angelo, The Roots, and A Tribe Called Quest in your collection? I would never even download a Britney song. Why in the world would I listen to it when I have much better music?

It's not weird because it's not what I listen to. It's weird because they have some very good and some very bad music in their collection, have a small amount of a style of music totally different from a huge amount of another. Or have some music from an artist, but not the songs that almost all critics and people in general say is their best.

Sorry, if your music collection is like this, I don't mean to offend you. I just don't know anyone who has collections quite like some of the ones I've seen on Mog.

I enjoy John Williams (Classical) and Children of Bodom (Melodic Death Metal). Does that make me a weirdo?

I tend to buy my cd's in store, I like to have a "hard copy". And before you say, you can burn it; i have a disorder that makes it difficult for me to label my cd's after i burn them.... well not really. I have a whole crap load of cds, but I don't like all the songs an artist comes out with. there are usually 2-3 songs on each cd that I have that I don't care for. And those people that like the random one song from Brittany, they probably heard it on the radio and liked it for some stupid reason. To each their own i guess.

Almost no one seems to have a full album (I guess they've just downloaded rather than bought their music).

They don't have the best albums of particular artists. For example, they will have "God's Son" by Nas, but nothing else. Why in the world would you have that and not Illmatic? Especially if you're downloading your music.

Crazy people :o:D

With the internet, you don't have to buy the whole album. You can purchase individual songs from an album perfectly legally.

Very true. It has nothing on Illmatic, but I think it's NaS last "great" release. HHID was okay, just like I Am... and Street's Disciple was better than HHID, but still not "great.

Simple. They don't understand the value of the superior music. To them, Britney, The Roots, and D'Angelo are all the same. One could make the same argument with respect to entire genres. For some, rap, rock, and clas sical are all the same thing... it's all just 'music.'

Bjork is actually good, unlike all the other names you've mentioned. Anyway, I have full albums and also some interesting songs I have found on the Internet on sites such as Last.fm with free songs available for downloads from artists who are trying to get promoted.

I dont' find their tastes weird at all. But the Britney Spears I might say now that is not something I would want to listen to. But besides that they have their own tastes. For me I will listen to almost everything from rock, pop, to rock. (I just dont' like country)
