How to dicover a new band

10 years ago: Listen to John Peel or Triple J, read the NME and ask the cool kids. If it sounds alright, buy the album.

2 years ago: Read about somebody in a newspaper, download the song from Napster or LimeWire. If it sounds alright, buy the album or download the whole thing.

Now: Check out your mate's taste on a social networking site or see something on Pitchfork that catches your fancy. Check out the video on YouTube or visit MySpace for instant gratification. If it sounds alright, buy the album, then go see them live and by the next day the whole thing will be on YouTube for repeat viewings.

I like the new way. What about you?
