Maybe he's exaggerating when he says "no-one got paid". The point is though, then and now, that only a very small number of artists really make money from record sales. The smaller artists have always had to support themselves with gigging and touring.
Artists have been kicking up a fuss because maybe they see piracy as a barrier to their big cash in. the reality is, i would suggest, that they wouldn't be cashing in anyway.
