How would you feel if I took 10$ from your account when I
felt like it or when I didn't have enough money to get a
taxi?

If a release is worth buying I buy it, if it isn't I delete
it and don't bother. Most music is wank these days. I have
ordered the Chris Clark ting, and the new LFO album but
nothing else has been worth the cash for a while now.

I just listen to stuff people post on here and my own junk
:D

I downloaded them both a while ago, but my theory is if I
listen to the tracks more than a few times a week then I go
out and buy them shits.

How would you feel if you were a musician whose music was
never heard because cartels controlled the channels of
distribution with an iron grip?

Control - that's what this whole thing is about. And if the
RIAA has their way they'll remove your ability to create and
distribute your music for free or for pay without paying
them a fee.

The days of cash cow conumer music are ending. Let us hope
the cartels either adapt or quietly fade away without
smothering a communications revolution that dwarfs
Gutenberg.

That's bullshit really, people just don't want to pay for
what they get. I reckon if someone takes the time to make
something I like and use then I have no problem with wacking
them money for it. That's why I donated to this site and
why I will always buy music I like, I just download it as a
preview.

It's not bullshit at all;
I would have never known about all this music I hear now if
it weren't for file sharing. And that means that I am
buying from smaller independant labels, not the RIAA nazis.

I am a musicain, I live off the music I make. I don't need
to work a day ever again, I've made a life for myself. I
feel sorry for people that get ripped off by cunts like you
that think you are on some moral crusade fighting corporate
institutions. You're a pathetic tit. In a few years maybe
you'll understand what I'm saying, untill then fuck off.

I have no problem paying for music. I have hundreds of
vinyls and cassettes and CDs and MP3s from paid services. I
resent concentration (and thus homogenization) of the media.
Downloading is pretty much the only way I can find out about
worthwhile music.

JivverDicker: Don't you think it's only fair for people to
have the option to hear the music first to see if they like
it, before blowing $15-$20 on a cd only to find out it's
pure shit. Because personally, I pretty much agree with you
on the issue, if you like the artist and their music then
you should support them by purchasing their cd/s. But I
still love having the option to hear the music before I buy
it. And if I find that I like it, then I have no problem
going out and buying their cd's for the sole purpose of
supporting the artist. But the bullshit thing is, artists
really don't make jack shit from cd sales. They make most of
their money from touring and mechandise. For example, a CD
with an SLRP of $16.98, minus a common packaging deduction
of 25% (which is $4.25) the amount paid to the artist will
then be calculated as a percentage of $12.73. Thus, at a 10%
royalty, artists will only receive a mere $1.27; and at a
14% royalty rate, a whopping $1.78. This is such total
bullshit imo. The only reason I buy cd's, is to show my
support for the artist's I enjoy, so they will be able to
continue creating the music I love. So when I stop to think
that close to 90% of the hard earned money I just spent on a
cd is going straight into the filthy pockets of the CEO cock
suckers at the record company, it makes me a little pissed
off. But I will continue to buy cd's from the artist's I
enjoy and respect, for nothing else except to give them my
support. And another thing, if it wasn't for my ability to
download music, I wouldn't have discovered at least 90% of
the electronic music/artists I've come to know and love. And
that's an utter shame, to think I would've never had the
opportunity to experience this amazing music.

I personally have no interest whatsoever in downloading
albums... the only downloading I do is when I want some
songs that are impossible to get, or I'm just unable to get
here... or if I just want one song by the particular
artist... I will always buy cds, because I love cds... I
love the artwork, and plus I just like having an actual copy
of an album!

Why are you bullying me in public freqy? Saying I go to
bookstores and buy books I'm not interested in? This is
very hurtful and not a good way to conduct yourself.
