Jay -- your sentiment is noble but no amount of
pondering the ethics of filesharing is going to make
much difference in terms of rewarding musicians for
their art. Govt action and changes in the copyright
system are the only things that can realistically get
musicians paid in this new era, we have got to update
our concepts to a new era in which anything that can
be digitized can be endlessly and perfectly copied.
BTW I saw you play in Hong Kong at the Berlin
Festival, nice set man! (That was you right?)
