New Manics music excites me more than live stuff, in all honesty, partly because I really can't be *that* bothered with gigs any more.

I suppose I just see it differently - I don't think spending money on music you're not interested in is a sensible thing to do. The purpose of buying an album is to enjoy listening to it, if it hasn't appealed then I don't blame people for not buying it. They're not a charity.
