Okay, Ive Been a Big fan for something like 10 years but this whole fiasco is making it VERY difficult. now i understand wanting to protect your intellectual property. However you can either admit that your a corporation and protecting your "Commodity" or be an artist and share your work with the world. I dont see how you can do both.
Now I have purchased Every Album you've ever put out (some multiple times) AND I have most of your stuff on Mp3. Now the CD is Supposed to be permanent media but it does scratch and die every now and again so I have my Mp3's to fall back on. I admit that I had S&M on Mp3 first but I went out and bought it right away cause I liked it and thought you deserved my money.
So I guess MY question is if your music is all over the world for free that an audience you may have never reached otherwise might want to spend 40 or more dollars on a stadium show they never would've thought about going to before? and that by attacking your fans or thier kids may generate you SO much bad press as to hurt your record and concert sales more in the long run than Napster ever could?
