i often think that when there is musical discussion on here. for some reason we think the music business is rich and we can just steal the music.
possibly its cos with the klf, nobody really minds the sharing/stealing. but once it concerns stuff you can walk into a store and buy, then it bugs quite a few of us.
also, talking about blatant piracy onlist is really bad for the list's health.
I think people tend to forget that this list and RM's ftp server are open to anyone who has access to the internet. There is (was?) at least one person on this list who has an email address that would suggest they worked for a record company...
while we're here, and to bring it back on topic.....
* the KLF deleted their back catalogue so we cant buy it * the stuff is mostly over 10years old * its mostly only for sale second hand so the band don't miss out on money * everyone does buy the stuff that is available * we hope they're nice guys and wont sue us * everyone else is doing it and they didn't get sued, so therefore we can do it
I'm no lawyer either, but that's roughly what I assumed too. Can anyone imagine B&J suing over copyright breach?!?! Then again, they could do it just for the irony!
