I don't think free music is devalued, especial if it makes me want to dance or stirs my emotions.
Ok I kinda agree in a way.
But then what are DJ`s getting payed for?
Playing other peoples music?
WHy should they get paid, for only playing it? Which took 5 mins to download, when the maker could have taken a week or two to perfect the tune?

As long as the DJ`s are getting paid, the bar staff are getting paid, the soundsystem guys are getting paid, the door staff are getting paid etc then there is a so called industry and the people providing the music that the entire scene is built upon should also get their piece of bread.

I say again why pay for anything? why just stop at music?
We live in a capitalist world.
