You are a symptom of what is wrong with America. No integrity. No respect for others. Just a selfish utilitarianism. Rationalization of adolescent appetite. Pathetic, really. And a symptom of our fading national character.

It's an unjust law, and I'm protesting it. Nonviolently, mind you. What's wrong with that?

More than anything is comes down to one simple fact - the business model has changed and nothing, absolutely nothing is ever going to bring it back. If musicians and the companies that sign them want to make lots of money going forward they are going to have to figure out a way to do it outside of selling CDs, simple as that. We can all whine that it changed for the wrong reasons ala the deterioration of our national character but all that is just pissing in the wind. Business models have collapsed throughout history, it is just reality. Doesn't matter why.
