so you get 104,788

for something that the record companies offer you 20k for

even if you have 100% piracy rate from that point on your going to make way more money then you would with a record deal.

and let be clear that never happens because there will always be fans who will support the artist

i bought sonos mp3 even though i could get it for free because i want to support creative versions of old songs.
Can you just answer me please?

When would an artist make more. If his album would be available for free on the filesharing networks or if it wouldn't be available for free?
