(It's also a little hard to take when the little guys, the ones that really need the money, are begging you to download their music and it's only the artists making millions of dollars that are the ones telling you it's wrong.)
Very true. I had a friends band that had "please copy this cd and distribute it freely" on both of their selfreleased albums before they got signed. Once signed, though, they had to be very clear with their fans that this was not a policy that they could continue. What's really crazy is that these guys sold an amazing amount of CDs all across the U.S. before they got signed.
