...as much as it gets downloaded but usually what happens is the singles from a certain artist will get downloaded illegally by the thousands to millions but the album would be sold in stores by the same amount.

With that being said the music I like will be given away for people to download for free but when the time comes when the artist/label drops the album retail everybody be ready for the leak and download the entire album but only a small amount of the album actually sells.

It makes you think you're in bizarro world where the worst the music the more it sells but then we have people saying "if the artist's music sucks then we aren't supporting it nor buying it", I don't know what to say about that.
