What you\'re doing is illegal and disrespectful to the musicians. I\'m no saint, I occasionally will download an album to preview it before purchasing it. I started a song of the day thread to introduce new artists by posting a song or two by them to interest people in buying the actual album. With the amount of money you people spend on fleeting happiness ie booze and drugs, I find it appalling that you "music lovers" can\'t sacrifice 16-20 bucks for a fucking cd, something that doesn\'t dissappear after a few hours and leave you sick and with an STD (
). You all know the band personally and you know how hard it is for a band to "make it", which is why I think it\'s disturbing that you would take, take and take. And please don\'t give me that bullshit, "it\'s the record industry\'s fault" or "they don\'t need the money". It\'s the principle that counts. These musicians worked their ass mentally, emotionally and physically to create the album you are downloading for free. I\'m not trying to be an ass hole,I\'m just taking an ethical stance.....
PS
the shows on the other hand.... Top notch!
