P2Pers buy MORE music. Not LESS.

Filed under: Life

In further proof that the Recording Industry is smoking rope, we find that peer-to-peer users buy MORE music. Why? Becuse they get exposed to more music, and actually find something that they like!

This is crazy. I keep saying it, you keep saying it, maybe someone will listen to us. DRM is a nonsense product. It has producers galore but there are no consumers asking for it. It’s marketless, useless, unwanted. Imagine if I started making purble pantaloons and nobody bought them — should I lobby congress and force laws into existence that guarnatees me that everyone who makes pants will have to pay for my pantaloons? No. A marketless product is a contradiction.

Oh, support the EFF. They have a new letter writing campaign on digitial consumers rights. The least you can do is join in. Do at least the least.
