Now I understand... these are stars, not artists. I've seen the ads.
Ahh, Britney and other stars are telling us that stealing is stealing. Cool. What about using P2P networks to find out what kind of music you'd like to buy? I don't want to buy music until I try it out. I get sold too much shit by this industry. I'm planning on spending $500 on this industry in the next year. I won't spend that money on music I can't try first. Not to mention that once I buy a CD or a DVD, why shouldn't I be able to put that on all the computers in my home, car, and work?
I'll let you in on another secret: sales are down cause your music sucks, not cause I can get your stuff for free on P2P networks. Hell, I always can get music for free. Anyone hear of the radio? Britney, Elton John, and Eminem. Yeah, those are three artists I won't buy this year. Clueless you all are.
