We've opened pandoras box, and it will never be closed again. The free flow of information will continue, even if you sue every last one of us. The recording industry and the music business have been screwing consumers out of millions of dollars for 50 plus years now, this is just pay back time. Pay back for every over priced vinal record, useless magnetic tape and CD with two or three good songs you actuly like for $18.99. At prices like that no one could ever get all the music they wanted to listen to, they would have to rich or at least willing to get ripped off all the time. The artists get a raw deal anyway, at most they might see a buck or two out each CD sold, the music biz fat cats keep the lion's share. If you really like the artists then go to their concerts, that's where they make their real money or buy the CD's directly from their web sights.
