[I'm] Very positive about the internet, Napster. I think it's a tremendous tool for reaching many more people than we ever could without it. Artists really want to have their music heard. I can't tell you how many kids have come up to me and said, 'I downloaded a couple of tunes off Napster and I went out and bought the album.' Or they say, 'I want to come see you play.' I don't really make money off of record sales anyway
The movie industry corrupts the government lobbying them to make bigger profits
Btw the industry isn't protecting the artists either, many artists have come out and said that they dont care if there music is downloaded ie Disturbed lead singer David Draiman said "This is not rocket science.... For the artists, my ass...I didn't ask them to protect me, and I don't want their protection"
