I'll be hiding in that pile of coats over there...
Realistically anything that's going on is far bigger then me and there's not
much I can do about it. We're just going to keep releasing what we want to
release, look for some alternate income streams (note...if you're
downloading stuff for free, you're not allowed to criticize when artists put
music in commercials), and hope people still drop some dough on recorded
music in one form or another. Barring that we're turning the whole thing
into a porn business because that always makes money. Look, it's still music
first money second, but things just don't magically appear for free.
Everyone's got bills to pay.
