Everyone knows that every anime series is going to release a soundtrack with the songs of its respected series. I tend to download the songs I like but sometimes I will buy the soundtrack because I really like every single song that appears in the anime.
These are the only soundtracks I physically own
I like soundtracks because when I'm listen to one, I imagine the characters interacting with one another or It can remind me of a great scene from the series. Some soundtracks are absolutely incredible and some can be planning boring.
I have seen the resent trend of the characters albums. Character albums are album that the voice actors sing songs as the character they are portraying. These character albums annoy me a little because the character album will mostly have 4 crappy songs and the image of the character on the front cover and it will sell thousands of copies in least than a week. However, the soundtrack of the series that has beautiful composed music will sell a thousand copies in a year. Maybe the fans are to blame because they buy character albums or the companies that release them for an easy profit but who knows.
So, do you buys anime soundtracks or do you download them from the net?

no macross 7? ^^
i've only got one macross 7 soundtrack cd.
I obtain...copies. I hardly see the need to shell out monies.
I also tend to download the OST's of my favorite shows but In a way of support the industry I would like the get the originals like for example the Eureka Seven OST you have in the picture... ^_^

Im no fan of Sountracks myself...
The only Anime Soundtrack i like is the one of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and its sequel.I absolutely love the Character Song Album of it too.I cant get enough of the SZS girls antics
I just download 'em. At the moment, I've got a serious obsession with the Advent Children soundtrack. O.o Yeah, I'm crazy... xD
Hmm.. ATM, I download the OST when they are out in the market unless it is a Hatsune Miku album like Re;Packaged.. ^^
I usually download it too, after all I feel you pay for the music when you buy the game. Only when I especially like the music I might get the O.S.T, like I did for FF3 (NES) ^^d
The only album I've ever bought was Gensomaden Saiyuki. After that I learned my lesson because there are TONS of background songs I have no interest in. Now I download.
I just down load them on the net. i cant afford to buy one soundtrack. Coz i got no clout..
I'll download some from the net and if i like it ill buy the album :) I enjoy owning the real thing.
I use to buy any albums that I could find. Now though its harder to find them in regular stores and I dont like to buy a lot of things online. plus I hate buying an entire cd if I only find a few songs I like. so I like to download music for free, or if nothing else I like finiding Japanese music on Itunes and only buying the songs I like.
