Indeed! Sharing MP3s free on the internet is truly the death of the music industry as we know it. All of that material was made freely available by the artist, but if you do not know it exists, you cannot find it. Having / sharing MP3s is a great way to announce your presence to the world, and generate interest that would not have been there before.

The part the RIAA doesn't like is that the buyer can deal directly with the artist (like Three Dead Trolls), and the RIAA does not get a penny!!! Awww.....

I wonder what kind of person would be obsessive enough, and have enough space, to purchase 31CDs, a DVD and a book (for Three Dead Trolls) based on this kind of advice...
