that's a pretty sad viewpoint. you've got to realize that by buying people's music you're directly supporting them and any ideologies they posess. would you really want your money going to someone who supports the killing of Jews? would you buy a neo-Nazi techno compilation because it had _cool_ beats? i hope not. --- : wells oliver / s0ewoliv@titan.vcu : http://mute.simplenet.com
