So if McGuinness means killing things like this site too... that'd stink. But truth be told, they DO own the rights on THEIR music.

Originally posted by MacphistflyThis has been drafted in collusion with Music Industry FatCats like McGuniness, who continue to push the lie that a lot of money goes to an individual artist when a CD is bought, this is in and of itself a lie.
Originally posted by MacphisflyFair enough, it is my own belief that he has brought to the world the greatest band on the planet, but it is absolutely not his right (or ANYONE else's right) to regulate what we have access to and can download.
Originally posted by easports43I agree with this mostly....but let me ask you this. What about out of print material? Should downloading out of print stuff be banned?

I am happy that U2 are okay with us 'sharing' the live material. Not profitting or selling but sharing.

Originally posted by thechickenI think that things that are not avaliable in your area and out of print are ok to download...And mp3 player can be useful, they are not "wrong" by themselves, but that they do encourage music download, and we know that the greater part of music downloads are illegal.
About more songs on the album...most albums with a lot of songs have a lot of filler tracks. I prefer to have one good 42 min album, with all good songs, than and 80 min album on which only half of it is worth listening. Remember the 60s, 70s and 80s, I don't see many filler tracks on those albums. It's not because you have a big media, that you have to use all of it. Usually, quantity is an enemy of quality.
