well Jeff i guess we could go on about this forever, but i think i get what you mean and i hope you get my angle. ignore my restaurant comparison that i spent about 1 second figuring out and lets say it sucked. otherwise the following posters pretty much said what i was trying to say, but in a better way. Ken made a better comparison, Drew covered my view on how it benefits smaller bands and sucks for the dinosaurs etc.
alot of bands have gotten my money for their CD's and they wouldn't have if i didnt download their stuff, play it on my portable player at work (wich is the only place i can listen to music atm), realised that it's good stuff and ordered it. add live concerts on top of that.
i dont think any band i have 'done this to' would take it the wrong way, and i currently sleep very well at night, so peace
