    Wouldn't be surprised if some of the people on here supporting piracy would also moan about Eastern Europeans coming in and undercutting British workmen by charging lower prices.

    If you want something ****ing pay for it.

    If i like it enough Chippy i will, but like i said on an earlier post, in the past i've spent hundreds on albums and films, watched/listened to them and thought, no ****er is going to give me that wasted time back again.

    At the end of the day, the artists get such a small percentage of the sale, that it's borderline negligible, it's the corporate labels that make all the money, and i have no qualms what-so-ever about ripping those ****s off.

    Tours are where most of the musicians get their money.

    Not quite as easy for the whipper snappers, what with peer pressure and all that bull.

    But do ya have any Al Bowlly??, that's the sort of prehistoric ****e i have accumulated over the years, **** he's been dead for more than 70 years. <yikes>

    I do find that the older i get, the more varied my musical tastes are becoming, i get some strange questions from work collegues, but **** em, i didn't put them on for them ****s to listen to anyway. <ok>
