forum's stance on sharing music?
pat101:
See I live in small town Canada, and don't really have the resources to go 'record shopping' whenever I'd like. Our CD store is crap at best, so I'm forced to download and download I do.
Storm Rider:
I download quite frequently, but only to sample the music. If I enjoy it, I will almost always go back and buy it.
LIVE!Forever:
So from the responses i'm getting the feeling that most don't mind sharing/downloading music but the official response is that this board frowns upon it, probably for legal reasons
surgerydrugsnrocknroll:
i would rather buy a ticket to a show, and maybe buy a shirt directly from them, than buy a cd for a band.
also, i would not know about 95% of the bands i know of if not for filesharing, and i probably wouldnt listen to music at all if not for filesharing.
every band ive ever bought merchandise from, i have previously downloaded their music.
eyepatch:
true, it could even be arguable that the sharing of music is beneficial to the industry.. even if it is a long shot :D
