Sarcasm aside, this is a wide miss when it comes to this guy. There's a huge difference between a fan that wants to hear your tracks for free (which they can all do right on the artist's website and youtube channel) and a predator who searches for that perfect nexus of mildly popular up-and-comer who lacks the legal muscle to fight back in order to exploit both artist and fan alike.
- anigbrowl 13y agoI don't know why the three of you insist on trying to shift the argument to piracy, which I didn't even bring up. There, unfortunately, lots of people who defend the idea that 'there's nothing new under the sun' and therefore it's OK to appropriate the work of others for remixing or what-all else. The fact that you're defending against an argument I never made in the first place strikes me as a classic case of 'protesting too much'.
