Ars Technica article on the effects of file sharing on legitimate sales.
dumb riaa...
(remember, they've restricted my purchases from iTunes too...just in case someone...um..."steals" it....
(course, if i use a recording software to defeat it...............)
oh and
RIAA goes after NIN Fans...despite signing off on it
Just a little... :rolleyes:
I haven't link-flicked, but if someone didn't hear of a band from a mate... how would they know of the band themselves or know if they actually want to buy the album? DRM'd discs are easy as well: don't burn them off of the CD, Explore the CD and pick the files off :D
