Re: [microsound] boris + sunn o))) collaboration



Honestly no offense intended, but how can anyone ever assume how others feel or what they would do in any given situation. I buy as much as i can of whatever mp3's i have downloaded without paying. As much as my income allows. An absurd amount actually. If it is music that i like then i want the entire package, i must have it. The CD, the design, the whole shpeel. Its a collector mentality. Besides supporting the artist, its a hobby and passion. For me there is no comparison between an album of mp3's and a vinyl album/CD packaging. I want to be able to hold it, read it, inspect it, and appreciate it. Its all relative.

but the "stealing culture" has also the (maybe long term) advantages for labels and producers, that in some cases, as somebody reported, stealing has been proved to increase abums' sales.

OK, i may agree with some other points of your mail, but this one i think is totally false.


i will never ever believe that someone who downloaded an album for free is going to buy it afterwards on cd, but let's say that you illegally download 100 albums of music, and then you buy a couple you really liked, what about the other 98 artists you are ripping off??
this is increasing sales??


and I should be crazy, as I'm starting a label...

let's hope with more creativity than labels use to have nowadays....oopss... ;-)


ciao,
