| reply to Wills Re: Piracy will never end
I've never bought an album I've downloaded either, but I have been introduced to new bands through the piracy of my friends, and in turn, bought the rest of their albums. In my most extreme case, I received a pirated copy of my favorite bands second album. Since then I've bought the rest of their collection (3 albums), two t-shirts, one DVD, and have driven as far as half way across the country to seem them live the six times. They lost the royalties of one album. They gained ~$400 from the $15 they lost to me in the beginning. |
