I'm the same way. I like to hear the stuff before I purchase it. I don't buy CD's anymore, but I still purchase the MP3 files from a Russian pay service. I still like to have the hi-fi sound files for my media server but only want to take up space with quality files. I'll listen to the free stuff at 64 or 128 bit rate and then purchase at 192. I think this works for everyone and still allows the artists to make a buck (if I like them).
