Piracy is GOOD for music!
FACT: Piracy helps musicians that are GOOD. It only hurts a tiny percent of terrible major label artists and the RIAA's bank account.
The majority of people in the world don't buy music, ever. Recordings have become promotional material to sell concert tickets and merchandise. More people with your music = more fans = more concert attendees + merch sales + ipod ad revenue.
Combat porn piracy all you want, torrents aren't helping xxx, but damnit stop perpetuating the myth that free music is bad, you are hurting the artists!
