Saw this subject on the work email. Follow this list to learn random stuff
ans stay informed, so thanks for all your posts and such.
Also do the music thing, and I can tell you that if you ask ten musicians who
write and record their own music, you'll get ten different answers. From
personal experience, I don't really care about electronic copies being
redistributed for free, but when people sell electronic copies or steal
physical copies (that shit gets expensive quick), that's when I get. pissed.
However, I also feel that if you have an opinion about that, it should be
communicated to folks before you give them copies, so my act has a little
statement on our website, goatropinbastards.com, that asks the downloader to
only uses the stuff for their own personal use.
I can understand artists being pissed if they spend six figures to make a
record and such, but when you're a hobbyist making albums on a computer in a
tar papershack in the Appalachia, I guess your a little more lax.
Hope that helps with the rights-holder point of view.
