"The internet is a great way to get yourself known. Its just that it's not structured in such a way that you can earn any money." It's hilarious that you seem to actually believe that. Totally ridiculous.
Because of the internet it is getting increasingly difficult for artists to make money. Every free download that that the artist is not paid for hurts the artist. Because of the music industry being rotten to the core, run by a bunch of crooks, and essentially being the mob. Conjure a clue, Copperfield. As Glen pointed out, it is *established* to not be as you claim.
Have you heard this news recently? The Music Industry wants to get paid for downloads of films and TV shows, and 30-second song samples. == greed & a lack of adaptive thinking. Not because of T3h Eevil Internets.
Artists are struggling to make money. The main reason is the internet EVERYONE is struggling to make money. The main reason is the economy.
If you wish to continue trying to "start something" all you will get from me is one of these. :) Nobody 'over here' is trying to start anything - you took care of that with your dreams-and-feelings-as-facts "arguments", attacks on Serge & Glen, and attempts to retain the illusion of being king of Yello. It's already over - you just haven't the sense to realise it yet.
See, we can all scroll back into the Scarily Eeeevil Permanent Record of the list and see you gloating about having a copy of this promo, which, by the way, of which YOU ALSO MADE AN "ILLEGAL COPY". You got pissed once someone else did, strictly speaking, the same thing - whole copy vs. partial copy won't make a difference in court, sugar.
