This kind of argument only throws the discussion in the gutter and serves no 
purpose :-)

Nobody has a "right" to hear any music.

While I too hate to not have access to good music, someone who decide to 
release their music in only one copy because they have a good motivation 
behind it, just like painters and sculptureres do most of the time, makes a 
statement *and* a release (albeit limited) at the same time, and they are 
just as valid for doing so as those who reproduce their work in thousands or 
hundreds.

The idea that music *should* be replicated and *should* be available for 
more than one or few persons is, in principle, nothing to pursue.
