Whatever makes you feel better about stealing music
This is the main reason music and movies suck today. Consumers need to realize they're voting with a purchase. You vote for quality you continue to get quality. You dont vote for quality or steal quality meanwhile crap is cheaper to produce and sells you will continue to get crap.
Buying music good or bad use to be an event. This new generation is soft.
wish i could rep you twice for that truth. clowns today just dont realize, while they think they're sticking it to the man all they're really doing is making the content worse as each year passes. sad.
not to mention you're robbing the artist you love.
who remembers that idiot NTer that tried to justify his stealing music by saying he gives them free promotion so they're even?
dude was dead serious on some "but, ive told countless people how good the album was"
...yeah, um, unless you can guarantee those people you put on actually PURCHASED the music it all means nothing.
then another idiot kept calling buying music an archaic form of compensating the artist. and that him going to shows makes up for it. problem is, you (the consumer) dont get to dictate to the artist what means by which you're going to choose to pay them for their craft.
some artists will literally come out and tel you to bootleg their ****. and thats fine, because thats up to that artist no one else.
some artists have a kickstarter
some artists have a bandcamp with CD downloads for less that $5
but will people support it? nope. they WILL steal it and then try to justify their way through it.
