Fun Stuff > BAND

The whole downloading music thing...

Toba:
If it weren't for music piracy, I really never would have gotten into music at all.  When a band I like is nearby, I'll go to their show, buy their shirts, etc.  There's no way I'd ever spend money on music without already knowing it'll be good - too many CDs suck to risk wasting my 15 bucks on a CD that might not be any good.

KharBevNor:
Precisely. If CDs were more in the same price range as DVDs, then I would buy a hell of a lot more CDs.

Yeah, that's illegal. The record companies will actually cut out the piece of your brain responsible for playing music.

Which reminds me... what's the legality of performing cover songs live these days? I should know this, I've just never bothered to find out.

KharBevNor:
I'm pretty sure that it's basically illegal but nobody cares. If it's anything like performing plays, then you have to buy the rights off the music publisher.

Toba:
This child cares.



He cares too much. And it hurts.
