While I really don't want to get into the whole debate of downloading music, because it is like the which sounds better lp/cd debate. Lots of opinions: few real answers. I do have a few questions to for those :
Do you think the Record companies really care about the artists in their 'fight' against downloading music? (I realize most understand that they (record companies) don't care, but feel the artist is being violated, which I understand) I would wager that Record companies swindle Artists out of more royalties, then money artists lose over downloading. (And no I am not offering that as a justification for it)
Have you ever sold/bought a used cd? (Again I realize that a percent of you don't because the artists doesn't collect on it.)
The Record Industry seems never to mention how the Now series of cds has cut into their sales. Now Series, for those who do not know, collects the radio hits on one cd. So instead of a kid needing to buy 15 cds to get the songs they want, they buy one.
Keep the Faith (in the Music)
