# in practice I agree -
those poor underpaid multimillionaire musicians and record execs... feckem!

but local music, download the rest.

... there is another factor, and that's this: because (some) people are downloading rather than buying, and all current music is arse, those Godly bands of the past who expected to have their back catalogue keep them in drink and drugs well into their 90s are having to reform and tour again.

Zed Lep are among my favorite crusty old rock bands and I'm often told off by the missus for 'getting the Led out' ... I'm not sure I want to see them touring.

# Thats not what they tell us
"Piracy costs the industry a billion dollars a year"

NO... spending £200 million on transformers surely contributed to that.

Paying Robbie Williams £83 million contributed to that...
