It Is True…
As I have said all over the internet, I spent two years in Thunder Bay for school and during that time I discovered and downloaded a ton of music from the Japanese pop group Hello! Project. When I returned to Toronto I found an import store that had H!P CDs/concert DVDs/posters. Now, a year after finishing school and returning to Toronto, I estimate I have spent about $1000 on H!P things. Yes, internet “pirates” do spend more on legal music…I am living proof of that.
