Well, not that it matters much, but here is my own personal opinion of it. I am totally in support of sharing and people pirating my own music. If thy have the means to buy it, I'd definitely appreciate that. But, hell, we're talking about underground techno right? How many records are pressed in a typical run? How many people in turn have access to all those records? It seems there is greater access to the internet than vinyl distributors so if some kid happens to find music of mine on Soulseek, downloads it, likes it and puts on a shitload of mixes or plays it out with a digital tool, I'm in full support of that. If they ever get a chance to buy it, cool. If not, nothing really lost.I don't like groups like the RIAA that run around attacking kids for sharing music because they don't really do me any good anyways. Who sees more of that money in the end? Artists or lawyers? Obviously, in a situation where a DJ at a huge club is getting regular well paying gigs somewhere in Europe, I think it's bullshit. Accessing the music isn't exactly a problem for such a person. But, I just don't see this as such a black or white issue. The amount of roylaties I see per record sold is change that I wouldn't scramble to pick up off the ground if I dropped it most likely. But that's just me. ;) Nobody is stealing food from me, or most other artists, when they download some songs. The roaylties you'd see as payment probably aren't enough to even get you a pack of small fries at a fastfood joint. For me, it's more rewarding knowing someone is enjoying and playing the track than me seeing a few cents here and there. I've been ripped off much more in the long run by promoters than I have music pirates.
