Nice attitude. Can I live in your house and eat your food? Its all just atomic particles, you can't charge me for eating the atoms out of your fridge can you?

waves don't physically exist, we can only observe their effects. atoms (of food) are physical matter. different ball game, surely.....

a record is a physical thing - but the music itself is a little harder to pin down.

i'm gonna shut up now, cos this is going nowhere.

apart from this - profiting from something someone has provided for free (willingly or not) is ****ing shameful - that i agree on 100%.
