    There's a fine line between trying b4 buying and outright keeping.

    Why would artists continue to make music if they aren't getting properly paid for it? The existing big names could probably get away with it with endorsements and concerts, but it'd be the end to young and struggling groups who need the money to improve.

    If it gets legalized then there is little incentive for artists to make music, Hollywood to make movies, and companies to make software.

    Despite what the music industry says, however, record sales are hardly hurt by illegal filesharing.

    Half of the shit I have, I wouldn't have bought anyway. Artists are still going platinum and above. How I discover good music is through filesharing then I actually buy the CD if it's a GOOD ALBUM. Gone are the days of buying that CD 'cause you heard that one good song on the radio.

    We are fooled no more.
    Agreed... 100%.

    I wouldn't have found even half of the artists I love now if it wasn't for file-sharing, and when I really like an album I go out and BUY it to SUPPORT the artist. That's the way it should be. End of line.
    mental note: get better sig

    It's a lesser of two evils I think, if you legalize it, it would still go on, but the danger and mystique about illegal file sharing would be gone. Thus, a lot of the culture surrounding it would change. Our parents generation bought Beatles albums and smoked dope because they knew their parents wouldn't like it. And they were right!


    Now look what their kids are doing.... what will our kids do??
