I'm not much of a poster but am an avid CA reader. Have learned a lot from this site, and am very thankful.

I wanted to toss this one out to the CA community to see how many folks are in a similar boat as I...

I purchase as much music as I can from HD Tracks, but am also a child of the iTunes generation and have not been inclined for years to purchase whole albums unless I feel it worth it. As a result of this preference I find myself often compromising sound quality and defaulting to iTunes when HD tracks is insistant on selling a given title using their present all-or-nothing business model.

I recognize this may not be their entire decision and that a record label influence may exist. But from a business perspective they are losing money from me as a result; money I'd love to give to them instead of Apple so I could have higher quality audio as opposed to compressed music...

Am I alone?
