I have probably 150+ VCR tapes from years ago where I recorded various movies back in the day. I remember much of my entire childhood having copied music tapes. So whats the difference? I live in Music City and I've had this conversation/argument more times than you can imagine with music executives, artists, agents, etc. For years I tried getting some well connected industry people to embrace the internet and even gave the solution to do it. But they were stuck in the same old mentality or hating it and directing all their money and energy in hunting down college students who downloaded their music and putting them on "show trials" fining them ridiculous amounts of money. It's stupid and it's not going to solve anything.
