This was the article I was trying to find for my Music Downloading post...

Music Downloads: Pirates - or Customers?

It takes an interesting stance on just how "hard" the recording industry has it (boo hoo) and that even since the Napster boom back when I was in grade 10, they have actually *increased* profits off of record sales...

I hate penny pinchers... "Here's 10 million dollars a year for 20 years.... ok, now here's 20 million per year.. but of that 20 million, we're going to keep 5 million.. so you're really only getting a 5 million dollar increase."

That's why I absolutely love artists that do things like free concerts... Tom Cocharne is having one coming up.. And who can forget Garth Brooks' free concert in Central Park? One of the biggest outdoor events of all time - and it was totally free..

cheers to those who do it for the fun of it, and not just for the bottom line.

Until next time.......
