When I was young I borrowed records from my friends or the local record hire shop to copy music for myself. It made me interested in music and I latter bought over 200 CDs and went to over 20 concerts. Am I a bad pirate?

Microsoft, Sony and Co have enough world domination. Licences should be for businesses only?

Support the ARTIST :-) by being a fan, not the SHARKS :-(

25 months ago: The problem with piracy is that when you copy a song instead of buying it, the pie is smaller, so the artist gets an even smaller piece.

The musicians who work their tails off to achieve fame and fortune don't want to be forced to settle for just fame. And believe me, if it was all about the music for them, we wouldn't have 90% of the drivel being pumped out these days.
