Think of it this way, Marijuana is llegal, and if you smoked, would you rather grow yours for free, or buy it from the government and pay a tax on it. That's what the governments want, Taxes imposed and tax revenues generated.

We share what others don't want to share, simply reason being is that they're too darn greedy. CDs are tremendously over priced, and these so called "Artists" make way too much money while the poor hard working man struggles to feed his kids and buy music @ the same time. Would you deny him the right to enjoy free music which will lessen the burden that is placed upon him by these greedy world wide dominating companies?
The industry and the record companies won't even comprimise and produce cheaper CDs or even lower the sky rocketing prices. They won't have it any other way than that of ripping people off, so we rip their CDs back in return.
An eye for an eye, thats my War Cry! Lets do battle Music Moguls...
