I am new, and just wanted to inroduce myself - --- My SIGNATURE: --- The commercialization and industrialization of music is nothing less than the greatest sin that man has ever commited agains God! The band "Metalica" and their supporters are the Satan and Deamons of this sin, now demanding that you pay multiple times for the exact same material just because of it's "Format". Calling and making music shareing illegal is just as sinfull - The most recent abomination of this sin is the commercialization of MIDI files, the forced shutting down of MIDI archive websites, or worse yet... those like MIDI.com - who used to be a quality MIDI archive for all genre of music now selling out to the new marketing of SHORT - INDUSTRY APPROVED "RING-TONES". MIDI IS NOT NOW, HAS EVER BEEN or will EVER BE reduced to the status of a mere "ring-tone"... MIDI IS FREE - LIKE AIR! ...and any person who makes money off of a raw MIDI file is lower than a salesman of Snake Oil and sleazier than the sleaziest pimp - the slimeist whore and the greatest of the least of all the animal kingdom!
No artist should demand, or even desire to be compensated more than once for any single peice of art they sell to A SINGLE INDIVIDUAL! To even covet the idea of this is Blasphome - and the Congress of the United States of America are the Heritics that have permited this sin to be commited -
To anyone that supports this Industry Driven Tresspass against the Religion of the Soul, and the God it serves - I say this to you, and I mean it on every oath and promise I can make -
YOU - YOU ALL GO TO HELL AND NEVER, EVER COME BACK! Let this Grand Larceny against the American People be your haunting core - may this sin be all you know, and may you writhe and never escape it... and may the effects of this not be on the hands of the ignorant - may this Karma and all Effect directly related to YOUR CAUSE be transfered in equal protion to your perpetuation and propogation of this sin.
If The Will of God Permits...
So Mote It Be!

This is what I agree with. I agree that music should be free. Art everywhere SHOULD be free. However, I also believe that we should never have to go to war. I believe that all people are created equal and should be treated so. I believe that if there was an all loving God, food and beer would just appear in my fridge and the weather would always be a moderate temperature.
As it turns out though, I live in the real world, and none of this stuff actually happens. Paying for more than one format is wrong? Hello, are you too young to remember going from cassettes to cds? I am not that old, but I still had a decent little collection when that happened. The reason artists get paid for what they do, is the same reason you pay for your tighty whities at Walmart: somebody put some effort and/or skill into a product and if you wanna receive that product you have to give something in return, so that they can continue to produce it. It is called Capitalism, and while Socialism is a stimulating concept it has never worked and will never work.I also agree with him on the fact that 'sharing' should be spelled 'shareing' and 'demon' be spelled 'daemon'. Gnosis, Dude, the first time you ever receive a paycheck for something that you LOVE to do, you will understand why it is important that people get paid to write/record/perform music.
