Those greedy, scumbag record companies are taking Morpheus and Kazaa to court, just like they did with Napster. Even if they shut down every single site, i still wouldn't buy the records because i can't afford them all, and i will not pay huge amounts of money for something without knowing of it's any good. Jesus, how much money do these people want?... |

What about audiogalaxy? Are they being taken to court by anybody? It's just a cycle, though; one file-sharing site goes down, seven spring up. |

But how can these sites be up when Napster was closed? Isn't it pretty much the same deal? |

No AG is safe because they kind of compromise by blocking tracks if requested to do so by record companies, but they can only block if the full artist and song name are there, so you can still get most stuff by being sneaky and putting part of the song name in!... |

i will always get music off the internet... the way i see it, im not steeling if nobody is loosing anything i would'nt buy the record anyway, so nobody is missing out on anything! of course, if the artist IS good, then i will buy the record.. |

But, when I use AG I search for the full artist AND song name... That works. |

As peter sez, one dies and loads more spring up. The demand is so high. The only way the record co's will stop it is by competing with a similar service but that's so good people will pay for it. Like really high quality files, fast downloads, cover artwork to download and print. |

It should be up to the artists themselves whether they want their stuff mass shared without anyone paying for it. I sorta think it's wrong, artists should be given extra incentive to create beautiful things... just like patents are given to inventors... maybe there are some fantastic artists who don't share their ingenious ground breaking work because why should they if they'll just get screwed? Or maybe they could have people pay like 5 cents a download to each artist, I'd pay that, I wonder how much money, say, otto von schirach would make that way.... |
