Re: artist rights vs. fans

Greg, re:

I pretty much agreed with everything you said, except the following:

> However, the plain and simple fact is, that by buying them I have taken
money out of the pockets of those that created that music.

That would really only be true if a) you were buying a "pirate" recording
instead of a legit one or b) bought a bootleg instead of a legit release. In
absence of those 2 conditions, you're not taking "money" out... you're just
not putting money in...
