Music sharing can never be stopped. Pirates are always one step ahead of the music industry. Everything that has been said to be rip-proof becomes ripped a few days later. It's just the way how it works, and the music industry can do nothing about it. They pay a lot of money to make their cd-s rip-proof, but all this money is wasted because some wizzkid finds out a way to get around the protection, makes a programme or crack which can be understood or installed by anyone and the industry is back at the point where it started.
Personally I don't buy CD-s either, because it's like tc-fan said: Cd-s usually come in a mix, and I don't need that, unless it's a liveset. Any sad prick can do some studio-mixing. Good live mixing indicates the quality of a dj.
By the way: I still don't understand why Napster is forbidden and filtered and stuff. Most people download music to see if the CD is worth to be bought. If the music industry is against this: does that mean that the cd's they sell are so full of rubbish and are they afraid they won't sell any? Furthermore: mp3 is not a real copy of an original, because the quality is much lower.
Well, this is just my opnion. What do you guys and gals have to say about this matter?
