Hmm, do used LPs count?  I've bought quite a few of those...  A couple Miles Davis albums, "B****es Brew" and "You're Under Arrest," Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's "So Far," and, uhh...  Hmm...  Even so, that was a while ago...  Got lots of 'em from when I was a kid, good thing I've got a record player that plays them at the EXACT speed...!  As far as CDs go, among the lot, a few are:
"Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Greatest Hits," "Journey's Greatest Hits" (I actually have TWO of these; the original version, and this is the reissue with a bonus track.), a double-disc Nat King Cole compilation, and a double-disc Smooth Jazz compilation.  Think I bought more than that, but I can't remember now...  Oh yeah, and a Classic Rock compilation.

EDIT: Seeing as how I'm brokeback poor most of the time, I only really see money twice a year: Xmases (which I don't celebrate much anymore due to a change in my beliefs, yet, gifts are, well, fine; if someone wants to give me a gift, it's always welcome; yet, it is more blessed to give then to receive), and my birthday.  Which IS coming up in about a week and a half...
"And the Most High said unto Moses, Ahayah-Asher-Ahayah.  And he said, Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel, Ahayah hath sent me unto you...  This is my name forever, and this is my memorial unto all generations."

1953-2011...  One day, mother, I shall see you again...

Oh yeah, forgot to mention that I'd bought a few more LPs than that: "In the Groove with the Kings of Swing," a six-LP "Swing" boxset; "The Longines Symphonette Goes Pops," an eight-LP Classical set, with all popular, short selections; hmm, and a couople more Classical LPs - one of them a Mozart.  Hmm, there's a few more though...  One at at time, I'm "ripping" them to my third computer, and encoding them to FLAC.

What I've bought recently?
Last week I bought a new MP3 player for 998 SEK = 162,95 USD.
I regreted it imidiatly, the player was dumb!  :angry:
Even more bad, I had wasted that money on it!

So, I put in an advertisement on the player, hoping to sell it.
It worked, I sold it for 900 SEK!
Afterwards, I went to town and bought a Samsung P2 for 1299 SEK = 212,10 USD.
Now I'm happy about, I love Samsung's "gadgets!"  :^.^:  I'll stick to it.
The sound's awsome, and now I'll rip some music from my CDs.
Also bought a bike-computer for my cousin's birthday!  :^.^:

Just a heads-up:
This topic is for discussing new music/audio purchases (CDs, etc.), not just any purchase in general.
No worries though, except for where it's posted, it's not exactly obvious. :p

Music/audio purchases only!  There is no general "what did you buy" topic on the GOF (not yet anyway).

Yes, however, this topic is under the "Sound Off!" thread which is music. So if you link the music thread and this topic together, you get a="What have you bought recently?" thread.

Lately, I just got two new albums.  First one is by Within Temptation.  Awesome goth metal music!  The second one is the latest album by Disturbed.  I think their music is the reason I really like heavy metal!
