Like I said, there's a bigger problem that exists that deprives artists of their royalties and that is buy used. I'll wager a bet that there is nobody on this board that does not or has not made a used purchase.
I understand that downloading around the globe may have different motives and meanings, but with the members of this board, I feel 1000% comfortable that the downloaders also purchase. I'll point to the fact that I can never even get in to the tables at PP because everyone is ripping through the goods. Many of those people download and those people are obviously buyers too (myself included).
I simply don't like the accusatory tone in Cheiron's post. When we talked about cd collections, I'm one that put down 4,000+ of actual purchased cds so I don't like the accusatory finger pointed at me because I have plenty of evidence to prove contrary to the fact that I'm negligent in artist support.
