What about the individual artist's right to decide (for better or worse) what to share and what not?
Who are you to take that away?
I'm sitting right here with all of my old band's tracks up on LimeWire. A friend of mine has them hosted on Kazaa. I would rather my music be heard for free than not heard at all, but that choice belongs to myself, my drummer, and my guitarist and nobody else.
[QUOTE=Zeppelin]I think its really dumb that musicians in the USA cry about p2p file sharing networks, especially when we're talking about a band like metallica with all the merchandise they sell besides cd's.
Just watch some mtv cribs and you'll understand what im talking about..
If you think MTV's Cribs is representative of musicians in the US, you are very sadly mistaken.
