Yea, I only have two burned cds and they've got a lot of different people on them and some of the tracks are instrumentals from anime. However, The burned ones are really useless to me because they don't play in my car (heck, some of my russian cds that *aren't* burned don't play in my car), so I've automatically got the urge to willingly spend lots of money on originals just so I can play them in my car and annoy other drivers with loud Japanese music. XD
If anyone is ever hesitant about spending the money on the cds, here's my advice:
1) pick a day when you're really depressed
2) go online, browse on Yesasia/cdjapan
3) find something that makes you think "If only I had this right now, I'd be in a much better mood!"
4) think "why the hell not!" and stick it in the shopping cart
5) go ahead and pay for it.
The therapy for the depression is that all day you can brag to strangers about how you've just bought an awsome cd that's gonna come in the mail any day now. And then, the next day when you're happy again, there's nothing you can do about the money because they've already sent it off! ^-^
As crazy as this sounds, this is what I did last month at school so now I'm $60 in the hole, but it's okay! -.^ I got Diabolos and Merveilles outta it! Yay for feeling depressed!!!

p.s.: Yes, I know its a bit strange, but it's a lot easier to buy things when you're in a 'screw it all' mood, ne?
