I just want Nine Inch Nails to be the biggest band in the world.
-
the day the world went away :D
-
the greed of these record companies is amazing... he's talking about downloading, not walking into the stores and grabbing the cds
-
What did he say in the beginning?
-
to be honest that is the main reason why i don't buy much music cd's, if i listen to any i only listen to them on youtube, at least i'm saving money
-
He is one cool muthafucka, his band has my respect too!

You got a point - not every artist can do the Trent Reznor thing and keep himself afloat - but it does get to a point where it crosses the line. Anti-Flag does just peachy selling their CDs for 5 bucks at their shows which cost 10 to get into. Thats fair.
Why should the people of Sydney pay 40USD for Year Zero? Its a good album but its not THAT amazing! Why should I pay $29 for a CD cause it has extra packaging?
If stores would simply sell more fairly, we dont have to download or buy at shows.

true amazing how many people dont understand

Nobody. And that's the way it will stay if people don't realize that someone had to spend time and money to make that album they are ripping off.
Take this into context.
His "Year Zero" CD sold for $40 US in Australia. He asked a store owner (who didnt he was speaking to Trent) why and they gave him the explanation of the thermal paint coating.
Trent pays for that out of his pocket @ 4 cents per CD. So who makes that extra $25 on the sale? The store. The Company. The Label. BUT NOT TRENT.
He said this in Sydney for a reason. They're getting ripped off. I have so much respect for him its not funny.

Actually, the police or FBI would not be able to arrest you because the copyright holder (producer of the music being copied) has now given his fans express permission to make and distribute copies of his music.
