Hmmm... Ya know dude, those guys were all stuck working day jobs before
Napster came along. Which is not to say that that's a good thing, but it
isn't Napster's fault. If we're all really *really* lucky, Napster et al
will do enough damage to the majors that a few new oportunities might open
up for those of us stuck in day jobs. The industry as it is certainly isn't
going to provide any. If a whole buch of perfectly good musicians are
getting screwed as it is, what exactly does one have to lose?
