Boohoo, oh the poor recording industry :crocodiletears: Karma's a bitch isn't it, been raping honest people for years and when you start to get your own back you want everyone to go to jail.
I don't illegally download music, the music that I do download is free music supplied by the artist, I buy the rest. But the way that the recording industry carries on about kids stealing their music and lying by saying that it hurts the artist makes me not want to buy anything from the established music industry again. Get a fucking clue, no one in the world has bought a copy of Chinese Democracy yet but I guarantee that Axl is not hurting over it.
I dream of the day that there is a good site just for unsigned bands where people can go buy their music at a reasonable price directly from the artist and know that the money is going to the artist. I hope the establishment dies a miserable death.
