Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Sharing songs on the internet, for free, is stealing. Making music is no different than making toasters, or tires, or tools. If you walked into a store and walked out without paying for the items you picked up, that is equivalent to stealing music.

I agree to some extent. Yes, people should be paid for the fruits of their labor. I remember the “god ole days” when you bought an album or a CD with only a few good songs and no one in the record industry was complaining.

What ever happened to DRM?
