Yeah, right...
Do you remember the last time the record companies spouted this shit?
My C90's didn't kill it then.
I'm quite happy to buy a CD direct from a band, I'd be even happier to by a FLAC tract from them too.
Record companies have never supported musicians, ever. They only supported themselves.
Why do you think bands tours so much? They get all the money and merchandise sales.
They even record the live gig and sell it to you as you leave the venue nowadays.
I support bands, I don't support record companies.
And I've been working in live entertainment since the late 90's and people 'stealing / sharing' the music has only made it better.
