Does anybody really want to steal Kiss' music??
Most of the piracy of music is of the current teen musical heartthrobs...not
old has-been jazz players.
I don't see Puff Daddy, or Jay-Z going around in rags and driving Pintos...
Don't most studio musicians get paid per session? So it wouldn't really
matter to them if the CD sold ten or ten million copies.
Has anyone on this list written a top-ten tune and hasn't been sufficiently
rewarded?
My point is that it's the large corporations, the same ones who have
marketed good music out of the picture, who are "suffering" because of
piracy - and over-priced product. $20 for a Kiss cd??? Gag!
I would like someone to explain to me how all this piracy is affecting the
average musician, who by the way, is probably not paying composers for the
right to play their tunes on gigs...
